Upon discovering this stand at Baconfest, I forced myself only to grab the samples of things that seemed a bit more unusual. And definitely things that I haven’t tasted. This one caught my eye because I love gunpowder tea – I think the texture is so cool to look at both dry and unfurling, and even to touch. I have never had a flavored version.
This is really tasty – it definitely does have citrussy, fruity flavor, but you can also taste the green tea. It is dry enough that I actually do think a splash of liquor would be pretty good in this. Not an idea I think of often when it comes to tea. Bonus, it resteeps pretty well.
