Davidson's Tea Bulk, Gunpowder Green, 16-Ounce Bag Reviews
Davidson's Tea Bulk, Gunpowder Green, 16-Ounce Bag Reviews
49 of 50 people found the following review helpful Great Tea, Amazing Value, By Amazon Verified Purchase This review is from: Davidson's Tea Bulk, Gunpowder Green, 16-Ounce Bag (Grocery) This has to be one of the best bargains on green tea ever. No, it's not a high-end gourmet tea - but it's not intended to be. What it IS, is a terrific everyday green tea. Mellow, slightly earthy, and very pleasant on the palate. Second brewing yields a good cup, as well. As with every Davidson' tea I've ordered, the quality of the leaves was wonderful, with very little dust, or stems. It's obvious that they care about their product, and it shows. The origin is not stated, but who cares? The tea is just fine.EDIT: I recently received my third order of this tea, and this batch was, quite simply, awful. The bag was mis-labeled, and is not green tea. As we immediately store tea in sealed containers when it arrives, I do not have the original packaging, and can't return it (thank heavens it was inexpensive). I have had great luck with Davidson's in the past, and assume that this was a fluke mistake, but, BE CAREFUL TO CHECK THE CONTENTS! 29 of 31 people found the following review helpful It's Okay Gunpowder Green..., By This review is from: Davidson's Tea Bulk, Gunpowder Green, 16-Ounce Bag (Grocery) Perhaps I received a "bad" batch, because I found this tea to have a significant amount of dirt and debris. I found sand-like grit, black and slightly metallic-looking flecks (not in anyway related to the tea) and so far, one piece of some sort of fuzz-like fiber and some other cork-like debris. I did not expect this. As for the taste, it's okay; not our favorite gunpowder green, but for the price, the taste was acceptable. Although, we felt it's a little too smokey, bitter and not enough "grassy". I think this would be a good tea mixed with other things, such as mint. A little of this goes a long way. I'm not sure if I'd order this brand again, perhaps one more try sometime in the future. Hope this helps! 18 of 18 people found the following review helpful This isn't gunpowder green tea, By Amazon Verified Purchase This review is from: Davidson's Tea Bulk, Gunpowder Green, 16-Ounce Bag (Grocery) I like tea, in fact I like it a lot. I've had some good gunpowder green tea in the past from adagio as well as Twinnings and it is a beautiful thing. You put what look like little BBs of green tea into your cup or teapot, add the water, and you can see the tea practically explode into nearly full size leaves of tea (hence the name).Davidson's tea disappoints. The tea leaves really don't expand much which tells me they weren't really rolled the way gunpowder green tea is supposed to be. This tea also lacks flavor (at least compared to the other gunpowder green teas I've tried). I used the same amount to brew the same cup of tea I've been enjoying with Twinnigs and frankly the Davidson's version tasted more like hot water than green tea. This may be because the leaves aren't as compacted as a proper gunpowder green tea so the same tablespoon of tea now has less actual mass of tea leaves, it could be because this tea has a lower quality tea leaf in it, heck it could be...
