Organic Gyokuro Green Tea, sourced directly from Kyoto Prefecture, Japan. A highly prized green tea, prized by connoisseurs for its exceptional quality and incomparable flavour. Harvested only once a year, this premium tea is made exclusively from the tenderest leaves of the tea plant.

The secret of its extraordinary flavour lies in the traditional shading technique: the tea bushes are shaded for several weeks before plucking. This process intensifies the flavour and aroma, concentrates the nutrients and develops the sweet and umami notes that characterise premium Gyokuro.

The deep, vibrant green leaves are carefully hand-picked. Immediately after plucking, the leaves are gently steamed to preserve their natural green colour, unparalleled freshness and inhibit oxidation - ensuring that all of their beneficial properties remain intact. Gyokuro is particularly rich in chlorophyll and L-theanine.
