About the Brand

Since 1706, Twinings has been at the forefront of the tea trade. Customers in more than 100 countries enjoy Twinings products, and not just the popular traditional favorites: Twinings now includes products such as fruit and herbal infusions, aromatic teas, and iced teas. These fresh flavors reflect a worldwide trend toward a healthier and more varied lifestyle. The new flavors are as successful as the traditional ones, because Twinings prepares them using skills acquired through three centuries of experience. After quenching thirsts for so many generations, no one knows better than Twinings how to deliver a drink that's in perfect condition. Although British-based, and still operating in England, Twinings also has plants in North Carolina and Calcutta, India. Success in the competitive worldwide tea market was confirmed in 1972 (and again in 1977) when Twinings became the first tea company to win a Queen's Award for Export.

From the Manufacturer

A crisp fresh green tea with a clear golden color, Twinings Gunpowder Green Tea can be enjoyed at any time of the day. Each leaf is rolled into a tiny compact pellet, giving it the appearance of old-fashioned lead shot--hence the name, but the term could just have easily have come from the way the pellets explode to many times their size, and release the distinctive flavor, when brewed. Green Tea is a natural source of antioxidants that may help protect the body from damage caused by free radicals, and is naturally low in calories when served without milk or sugar. These characteristics make green tea an ideal accompaniment for people wanting a healthy lifestyle today. Enjoy piping hot or as an iced tea with lemon.

• FRESH FLAVOR: Six tins of 3.53 ounces of loose Gunpowder Green tea. This green tea is a full-bodied, caffeinated experience. Steep for three minutes for the perfect cup of gunpowder green tea.
• ONLY THE FINEST QUALITY: Our expert blenders source only the finest leaves cultivated to our exacting standards by trusted growers around the world. From these tea gardens we hand-select the leaves that will shape your next Twinings moment.
• GUNPOWDER GREEN TEA: A full-bodied green tea with a clear golden color and mellow aromatic taste.
• RICH HISTORY: In 1706 Thomas Twining began selling fine tea from an English storefront in The Strand, London. Today, Twinings still sells some of the world's best teas from the original store and in more than 100 countries throughout the world.
• HAND SELECTED FOR YOUR HOME: Made without artificial ingredients, Twinings natural teas provide a wholesome tea experience. If you enjoy Bigelow Tea, Lipton Tea, Harney & Sons Tea, Davidson's Tea, or Prince of Peace Tea - try Twining's of London Tea.

User questions & answers

Question:	Is the tea from Japan or China? Thx
Answer:	Apparently Amazon believes (incorrectly) that I am an expert on Twinings tea because I ordered my favorite Darjeeling tea from them. Frankly, I am surprised that Twinings didn't put the country of origin information on the tin. But I went online in search of an answer to your question and discovered that Twinings doesn't say what country this particular blend of tea is grown in. Having said that, however, I discovered that they say that their green tea is 80% grown in China. But the other 20% can be grown in other parts of Asia, India, or even South America. China is, however, the expert in tea management having been in the business far longer than any other country. I got this information from the Twinings website. On teagalaxy.com I found a review of Gunpowder Green Tea that was posted last August. It is a very detailed review of the tea and the reviewer mentions a book about tea, "The Tea Enthusiast's Handbook," that states that "gunpowder tea"... is..."one of the best known and well-liked of all standard green teas. Gunpowder tea is normally produced in Zhejiang Province, China." The reviewer liked the taste of the tea brewed at 170 degrees Fahrenheit for 2 minutes and 30 seconds. At this temperature it takes the bitterness in the taste of the tea away. If you wish to learn more about this tea, I suggest you go to teagalaxy.com and read the review posted there on Twinings Gunpowder Green Tea. I hope that in some fashion this has answered your question. I used Google as a search engine and stopped searching after finding this review. However, you may find more information about this tea if you post the name of the tea and Twinings on a search engine.
Question:	Are the tea leaves placed directly in the tin box or in a big cellophane bag first ( included in the tin box
Answer:	It’s just in the Tim but it’s covered with foil (it’s sealed)
Question:	Can this tea be used in a reusable k cup
Answer:	I think any loose tea can be put into a plastic reusable k-cup (just like loose grain coffee). Because the hot water pours through it rather quickly I'm not sure how intense the flavor will be. You may have to try different amounts of tea leaves to get the right flavor.
Question:	How many ounces of tea will a 7.05 ounce tin make on average. I am trying to compare the cost of this vs. tea bags
Answer:	My wife and I make a 6-cup (48 oz) pot of tea every morning using the loose tea. One 7.05 oz can of tea lasts 3 to 4 weeks, so I guess that is roughly 100 - 150 cups of tea per can. We haven't compared cost to tea bags - we love the taste of brewing loose tea. We think the flavor is so much better than tea-bag tea.
Question:	I have a diffuser. How much do you use for an average 8-12 ounce cup
Answer:	It really depends on your preference. I would start with 1 tsp and move up or down depending on how strong it makes things. Personally, I like my tea fairly strong, so I have a Japanese 12 oz kettle that I'll put 1 1/4 tsp into when I just wake up in the morning, and then drink from it throughout the day. It does not retain its flavor quite as well as Chinese medicine tea, but it definitely maintains a flavor through anywhere between 2-4 cycles. By the 4th cycle, it's pretty much colored water... If for a single cycle, then I'll only use 1 tsp.
Question:	Does this come in a tin box and is it authentic twining green tea
Answer:	Yes,,,it comes in a tin and YES it is authentic Twining Green Tea. As a matter on fact, it ant too shabby, you'll enjoy it !
Question:	Is this good for tea reading
Answer:	the tea seems to be pretty illiterate, I'm sure that it can't read!!! Taste good though.
Question:	How much tea is included in this item, and how is it packaged? There is an alternative item that includes six 3.5 ounce tins. How does this compare
Answer:	I always get the tins.
Question:	Is this a powder
Answer:	No It is loose tea.

Product description

Green tea is known for its smooth flavor and refreshing taste. Green teas are made from leaves of the Camellia Sinensis plant, the same leaves as black tea. Green teas go through a process where the leaves are heated to prevent oxidation while black teas are oxidized for additional color and flavor. The result is a delicious tea that brews to a light golden color and unique flavor. Twinings Green Tea is a style called "Sencha", known for its smooth, mild characteristics. Green Tea is pure and natural; smooth in flavor and refreshing taste.

User questions & answers

Question:	With the swift pass-thru of the Keurig style does the tea get enough time to steep
Answer:	I was concerned about the "proper" preparation of this tea using Keurig technology. I was pleasantly surprised. Whereas I enjoy the ritual of preparing tea the traditional way, the Keurig method delivers a nice cup of tea in half the time.
Question:	does it fit the keurig machine
Answer:	Yes, it fits the regular keurig machine. Not sure about the "view" machine or the new one with the carafe.
Question:	Does the k-cups work on the
Answer:	This is my second order of this tea. So far I have not had a problem with my 2.0 brewer. Hopefully they don't make any changes to the K cups.
Question:	The pictured k-cup will not work in new Keurig 2.0 even tho it takes k-cups. Have they updated this product to work in the Keurig
Answer:	I just purchased a box of the Chai Latte in a Keurig 575 (a 2.0 machine) worked fine. This was in August.

User questions & answers

Question:	Does this cone in K-Cups
Answer:	The individual packaged tea bags came in a Red and olive green cardboard box, count of 50 bags. This tea along with the Earl Grey tea we purchased, were packed in another container, well packed and labeled. Harney and Sons always provide superior products. I hope this info is what you were looking for.
Question:	where is it made
Answer:	Peppermint leaves only. 100% peppermint leaves.
Question:	Is the bag that actually holds the tea, paper or nylon
Answer:	Based on some digging online from people who have emailed H&S, it seems that at least one of the flavorings is cinnamaldehyde, a pure version of an oil found in cinnamon and used to give cinnamon candies and cinnamon flavored gum a spicy, sweet flavor. It is possible that is what is the source of the sweetness. Because it is classified as a flavoring and not a sweetener, they can label it as a flavoring.
Question:	Is there any specific reasons to why this tea's price is increased by more than double its original price
Answer:	Well, to be honest, I haven't used a 20-count tea sachet in so long that I don't remember what they taste like. I've been buying the 50-count box because it was such a better deal. I can tell you this, I have never been disappointed in the tea bags in the 50-count box.

User questions & answers

Question:	how many tea bags come with the box
Answer:	Case of six 20-count boxes (total of 120 individually wrapped tea bags)
Question:	So if I order this I get 6 boxes with 20 bags each
Answer:	The product page for the Twinnings tea has multiple selections for both flavor and size. One of the size options is 20 Count (Pack of 6) but another option is 20 Count which is just a single box. I was just looking at the Winter Spice flavor and noticed that the Pack of 6 for that flavor actually costs more than 6 times the cost of the single box. So it's worth checking the different options.
Question:	Are these tea bags individually wrapped
Answer:	I actually bought the box for my niece away at college. But, if memory serves me correctly, I believe that all of the tea bags are not individually wrapped. They come in one sealable bag.
Question:	Could Amazon please put the reviews that actually go with this product, rather than all Twinings teas combined
Answer:	I have found that when reviewing a specific tea I find that review on other tea products. I at first thought it was my mistake but after several attempts to correct the review I reached the conclusion it is a software issue.
