Description
 
Gyokuro Premium Grade
Mid Caffeine Green Tea
Uji, Japan
Steepings: 4 times

Shade growing green teas like Gyokuro means the direct rays of the sun is protected against, resulting in the chlorophyll and theanins being produced in larger quantities by the leaves.   This shading process also reduces the astringency taste of the tea.  As the tea matures through the months of May through September, it becomes rich, buttery, and sweet.  The taste of this tea has a pronounced sense of Umami, a term in Japanese meaning rich meal like taste.

Steeping Instructions



Grown by Shimooka san, who has won more awards in Japan for his Gyokuro than any other, and is the most recent recipient of the utmost prestigious award the Emperor's Cup.
