Organic Gyokuro (500g Bag)

Gyokuro (meaning “Jade Dew”) is the finest grade of Japanese loose leaf green tea. Similar to Matcha, the leaves are handpicked and shade-grown to preserve their amino acids, bringing out their natural, sweet taste. Gyokuro is a rare harvest in Japan and is cherished by tea connoisseurs all over the world. Aiya is proud to offer Organic Gyokuro, considered to be one of the most difficult teas to product organically in high quality due to its shade-grown method. 

Preparation:
Steep 1 heaping teaspoon (3 grams) of Premium Gyokuro for 3 minutes in 1/2 cup (4 oz / 120 ml) of hot water (122°F / 50°C). With this tea, one can pour more hot water over the tea leaves and enjoy another cup.
