Product Overview
In strength and color, Chun Mee is quite similar to Gunpowder, but with more smokiness. Chun Mee green tea has a bit more astringency than other green teas, and is suitable for drinking with sugar, honey or even milk. Because of its strong flavor, Chun Mee is great for flavoring and scenting. It’s often used in some African countries for making mint tea, similar to Moroccan mint tea made with Gunpowder tea leaves. This tea makes for a great daily green tea.
If you enjoy Gunpowder tea, Chun Mee is the tea you might like too. Even though Chun Mee is stronger than many other Chinese green teas, high quality tea products, if you brew them properly, will never taste very bitter. However, a slight dose astringency is normal in many green teas.
Chun Mee is a popular tea among green tea lovers and newcomers alike, with a mellow flavor and a small amount of caffeine. In general, Chinese green teas are lighter than their Japanese counterparts, which are known for their rich, grassy flavor. Our organic Chun Mee brews up into a pale yellow liquor, and has a subtly sweet flavor, with a fuller body than white teas but lighter body than most other green teas. If you’re interested in exploring different types of green tea, Chun Mee is a tasty and approachable tea that is sure to please!
