Gunpowder

Green Tea by Townshend's Tea Company

Classic rolled small-leaf green tea from China. A great everyday tea providing vitamins and anti-oxidants. Regularly drinking green tea has been medically studied as effective in warding off various forms of cancer. Mildly caffeinated, this tea has a smooth roasted flavor without the grassy tones of other green tea.
