Japanese Green Tea Gyokuro 50 g delicate and umami marine sweetExclusive leaf tea for true connoisseurs. Oto Gyokuro – the jewel among Japanese green teas.
Gyokuro is a top-class leaf green tea, originating from Japan, known for its delicate taste, deep aroma, and intense color of the infusion.. Grown with exceptional care, for about three weeks before harvest, its bushes are shaded with special mats, which limits the access of sunlight.. Thanks to this process, the leaves store more chlorophyll and amino acids (mainly L-theanine), which gives the infusion its characteristic sweetness, velvety texture, and rich umami notes. The production of Gyokuro tea is an art requiring time and precision. The leaves are hand-picked, steamed, and then dried and formed into thin needles.. Its unique taste is best brought out at lower brewing temperatures and shorter times.
