Gunpowder (zhūchá) is a Chinese green tea that gets its name from the grey-green, tightly rolled leaves that are reminiscent of 18th century gunpowder. Another possible explanation is that "freshly brewed" sounds like *gun-pao-da* in Chinese.
When steeped in hot water, the leaves unfold, giving the tea its characteristic grassy and sometimes smoky flavour.
In China, this tea is also known as pearl tea (珠茶). Gunpowder is mainly produced in the Ningbo region and is one of the most popular Chinese export teas. Nowadays, the balls are rolled by machine, except for the higher quality varieties, which are still made by hand.

Single herbal tincture made with dried leaf of Pulmonaria officinalis (Lungwort).
Lungwort, belonging to the genus Pulmonaria in the rough-leaved family (Boraginaceae), owes its botanical name to the Latin word 'pulmo', which means 'lung'.

The Dutch name 'pulmonary herb' is directly derived from the botanical name, and this name also occurs in several other Western European languages.
