Description
The nobility of an exceptional Gyokuro
This Grand Cru green tea comes from the Asanoka cultivar, produced in Kagoshima, Japan. Heirmind to a tradition dating back to the 19th century, this shade-grown tea is deprived of sunlight for three weeks prior to the spring harvest: a demanding shading technique that promotes the development of a delicious umami flavor.
Its pretty leaves, crafted into fine needles, reflect meticulous craftsmanship. Upon tasting, this green tea, with its translucent green liquor, reveals a beautifully complex aromatic profile, elegantly blending vegetal, buttery, and delicately marine notes.
Suggestion of preparation
How to prepare this hot tea:
In a teapot: 2 minutes and 30 seconds in water at 50°C (120°F).
Or traditionally in a kyusu / shiboridashi.
Grands Crus: savour the exceptional

Meticulously plucked, processed and sourced in the most respected tea gardens, our Grands Crus unveil unique flavours that reflect the refinement of their origins.
