Gyokuro (China)

This famous Japanese specialty has also made its way to China. Gyokuro is considered the noblest and finest green tea. Gyokuro means “jewel dew” and is praised by tea connoisseurs. Our Gyokuro comes from China and has dark green leaves. It has a very elegant mildness, with a hint of pleasant spices that characterize this tea. During the production process, the tea bushes are covered, creating its distinctive green color and improving its flavor (making it less bitter).

Brewing instructions (1 cup): 1 teaspoon (2 grams), pour over water (40°C – 50°C), steep for 1 minute

Storage advice: It is important to store tea in a tightly sealed tin in a dry, cool place, as moisture, light, and high temperatures can reduce its quality. It is also important to store each tea separately so they do not absorb one another’s aromas and flavors. Most of our teas keep for an average of two years.
