Description

This green tea is rolled into tight small balls resembling gun pallets from which it derived its name. As it steeps, the leaf unrolls into a wonderful green mass that produces a light and refreshing cup with a hint of smokiness. This is a classic tea very popular over China. It can be enjoyed at any time throughout the day and handles re-infusions very well.
