Japan Gyokuro

Discover the Essence of Excellence: The World Tea Expo 2024 Origin Winner - Japanese Tea

A Refined Indulgence for Tea Connoisseurs. The highest grade of Japanese green tea that will give you a delightful and velvety cup of tea. With its unique shade-grown process, this whole-leaf green tea is truly a standout among other teas. Unlike other tea varieties, Gyokuro is shielded from the sun for a few weeks before being meticulously harvested. This slow and deliberate growth process results in increased levels of the amino acid L-theanine, known for its "feel good" effect on the brain.

But that's not all, the shade-grown method also increases the chlorophyll in the tea leaves, giving it a vibrant green color and creating a sweeter and smoother taste. Imagine taking a sip of this exquisite tea and experiencing subtle hints of seaweed and honeydew notes.
