Bring honor to your home with this earthy blend of Chinese Gunpowder green tea, corn silk and rare flowers. Smoky notes support dry floral taste over a medium-bodied green for a strong and well-balanced cup.

Grabbed this sample from the last TTB. It tastes like a pretty typical gunpowder green, but very high quality. I don’t really notice any other flavors except maybe some mild fruitiness. I like this better than most gunpowder greens. I shared this cup with my partner, who doesn’t usually like green tea. He said, “I like this one because it doesn’t taste like dirt.” So I guess that’s some high praise.
Okay. Honestly not excited to try this because I’m not a huge fan of gunpowder green and the aroma from the dry leaf makes me think this has been defiled by other tea. The dry aroma is weird. Kinda smokey. Kinda cigarettey…. nose scrunch The green of the gunpowder is very apparent. Instead of Imperial soldier, I would have named this Civil War soldier. The taste is kind of bland. A little woodsy a little grassy, a little hay.
I’ve been quite intrigued by this blend- gunpowder green tea, osmanthus flower, violet flower, and corn silk. I love violet, and the additional floral component of the osmanthus seemed like interesting additions to the roasted/smoky flavor I’m used to in a gunpowder green. Plus, corn silk? I’m not quite sure how these ingredients are related to an Imperial Soldier, or Star Wars at all really.
There is a mild smokiness, but the cup is mostly just hay. Definitely no violet (I’m realizing now that the violet flowers are likely just decorative). There’s a touch of osmanthus, but I have to really look for it.
LOL I read this review out loud to my tea-hating partner, who got a good chuckle out of it.
Ha I’m glad he was amused! My partner usually says my teas taste like sweet water or for some reason cantaloupe. I keep trying though!
Mine says “hot leaf juice” a lot, by which he means it all mostly tastes the same to him.
