Also known as Jade Dew tea, Gyokuro is produced entirely by hand and considered the most precious of all Japanese green teas. Gyokuro plantations are covered by shade for 3 weeks before harvest so most of the sun’s rays are covered from the leaves. This process ensures the plants release much more chlorophyll and amino acids than regular green tea. Gyokuro has a beautiful dark emerald appearance and offers a smooth, slightly buttery and subtly sweet vegetal taste profile.

Avery W. ★★★★★

The shade-growing really comes through — that deep savory sweetness with almost no bitterness. I let it steep low and slow and got that vivid green liquor you read about. Worth the fussy brewing for a quiet Sunday morning.

Abigail ★★★★★

I brewed this at 140 degrees like the instructions suggested and got almost no bitterness, just a deep sweet umami that lingers. The hand-picked leaves unfurl beautifully in my kyusu. Definitely the most delicate green tea I've had.

Eli E. ★★★★★

The shade-grown thing really comes through — this is so much sweeter and less grassy than the regular sencha I usually buy. Steeping it low at about 60 degrees keeps it from going bitter, and the umami hit on the first sip caught me off guard. Worth the price for a weekend treat.
