Japan Gyokuro Bio

In Japan, this noble type of tea is usually chosen to pay special tribute to guests. This Gyokuru has an exquisite, dark green leaf quality. A noble, seductive delicacy for friends of top Japanese teas. With an exquisite bouquet and a fresh, slightly bitter note. Enjoy this Gyokuru Superior slowly and in small sips so that the taste can develop in your mouth. Gyokuro is a Japanese classic. In spring, the tea bushes are shaded with black nets around two weeks before harvesting, so that the plant develops a high chlorophyll and caffeine content in the young leaves due to the shade growth, but hardly any tannins. Only around 5 percent of the sunlight penetrates the nets. Gyokuro is one of the most expensive teas in the world. Only the top, freshly grown leaves of the plants are harvested, steamed and then dried during rolling. Gyokuro (in English roughly “noble dewdrop”) is the highest quality Japanese tea and is characterized by its noble green color and its highly aromatic, mild taste.
