China gyokuro
Green tea, 100g
China Gyokuro is an exceptional green tea inspired by the traditional Japanese method of cultivation in the shade.
It is among the highest quality Chinese teas of the Sencha type, but just like true Japanese Gyokuro, this tea is grown for several weeks before harvest under reed mats that limit direct sunlight. This increases the amino acid content and creates a rich, subtly sweet flavor with a pleasant umami tone.
The tea undergoes minimal oxidation and has a distinctive light green color and sweet taste.
