Product details
Gyokuro - Gyokuhou 玉芳
Presenting our premium Sencha, , carefully packed at the peak of the Uji Hachiju-Hachiya season.
Introducing our Uji Gyokuro "Gyokuhou," originating from the lush tea gardens of Uji, Kyoto region (Japan), named by the 57th generation Zen master of the Oubaku Mountain. Grown in carefully selected tea fields, this Gyokuro offers an authentic taste of Uji.
Indulge in the true essence of Uji Gyokuro. By steeping with lukewarm water, you can fully appreciate its rich flavor.
Gyokuro is renowned for its unique cultivation method, where tea bushes are shaded before harvest to enhance flavor and produce tender leaves. This shading process increases chlorophyll content, reduces bitterness, and creates a sweet, umami-rich taste profile distinct from Sencha.
Compared to Sencha, Gyokuro offers a smoother, sweeter taste with a deeper, more complex flavor profile.
