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.

Place a heaped teaspoon (2 grams) of tea per cup (250ml) into a teapot or infuser. Add filtered water at 70ºc and allow to infuse for 2 minutes. Strain the tea and serve.

The clear pouch that holds this tea is made from a renewable plant-based cellophane and can easily be home composted.

The cardboard is made from post-consumer recycled board, is printed with vegetable-based inks and can also be home composted after use.

Sourced from Japan.

Hand packed with care, by us, in Victoria, Australia.
