Gunpowder green tea with mint is the base of Moroccan tea: green tea leaves rolled into little pellets, blended with spearmint. Twinings, an English house founded in 1706, offers it here loose.
The pack contains two 200 g tins, or 400 g of loose tea, which keeps well when tightly closed. Measure it to taste, by the cup or the teapot: one spoonful per person.
This Twinings mint tea gives a fresh, fragrant cup, to be made with water at 95 °C. It is for anyone who wants to bring back the ritual of mint tea in a teapot, with the mint clearly present.
