Japanese Gyokuro 50g

Japanese Gyokuro is one of Japan’s most refined and highly valued STEAMED green teas. Unlike regular Japanese sencha, Gyokuro is shade-grown before harvest, a process that increases the tea’s natural sweetness, umami and smooth mouthfeel.
 
The leaves are deep green, fine and glossy. When brewed at a lower temperature, Gyokuro produces a rich, silky tea liquor with a deep savoury sweetness, soft oceanic notes and a lingering umami finish.
 
Japanese Gyokuro is best enjoyed slowly, using cooler water and a shorter infusion. It is an excellent choice for tea lovers who appreciate a delicate, luxurious and deeply flavourful green tea.
