Is it possible to turn tea into a block form?

Question

Well I am doing a project for a science class I take in the nights and as part of it I am researchign the hazards of everyday items (weird things like tea) and I found out that tea mixed with tobacco can kill you. So I wish to turn it into a block form to make it look like hasish as a kind of spoof and to try make it looks serious (I think a block of tea would look more serious than a bunch of black grain in a bag)

Anyways if anyone could help me out with this it would be great and I would like to use the black kind of tea that most people in the Uk and Ireland drink but I also have some herbal tea on hand if it must be herbal tea (I bought twinings)
