玉露 GYOKURO
packaging: 50g
GYOKURO is the finest type of green tea with a rich aroma. However, it is necessary to pay attention to the amount of water brewed and the temperature of hot water.
Tea leaves of this GYOKURO are the premium ones grown by a passionate farmer in Kagoshima Prefecture using organic farming.
Gyokuro is one of the types of sencha and is known as the finest Japanese tea.
Sencha and gyokuro are from the same tea tree itself. However, there are differences in cultivation methods, and as a result, there are differences in taste. Gyokuro is grown on covered fields, with blocked sunlight from the beginning of sprout at the earliest, or about 3 weeks before tea picking.
Gyokuro, which is cultivated in the shade of sunlight is a tea that has less astringency and allows you to enjoy a deep richness and umami.
Gyokuro is brewed in water at 50-60 degrees Celsius. Be aware that brewing in hot water will ruin it.
