Japanese Organic Gyokuro Green Tea

Gyokuro, meaning “jade dew” in Japanese, is the world’s finest green tea! Discover our Japanese Organic Gyokuro Green tea and indulge in its heavenly taste!

Japanese Organic Gyokuro Green Tea is the highest quality of shaded green tea. Gyokuro tea leaves are shaded about 2-3 weeks before harvesting. This gives its leaves their fresh green colour. “Gyokuro” translates to “jade dew”, indicating the colour of the pale green infusion.

Our Japanese Organic Gyokuro Green Tea comes from the region of Uji, near Kyoto in Japan. This region is famous for producing tea of exceptional quality.

Our Japanese Organic Gyokuro Green Tea, in addition to its most superior quality, is extremely rich in health benefits. Firstly, it is a shaded tea. So, it contains most of its original qualities, including a substantial amount of antioxidants. Therefore, it is great for cancer prevention. In addition, it contains many minerals that can improve your mental wellbeing, and aid concentration. 

Due to its exceptional quality and exquisite taste, Gyokuro belongs to a group of superior “Tencha” teas (the word “Tencha” meaning “Tea from heaven” in Japanese). It is best enjoyed on its own because its delicate flavour, sweetness and especially the “bitter aftertaste” render it too exquisite to be missed! 

Therefore, you would definitely enjoy our Japanese Organic Gyokuro Green Tea! It is absolutely heavenly!

This ultra-superior quality tea should be brewed in water of lower temperature, usually about 60 C°.

Japanese Green Tea is world famous for its high quality, delicacy and originality! There are very strong tea tasting traditions in Japan! What is more, Japan is one of the few countries that produces solely green tea!

Not very much tea comes from Japan, only about 2% of the world’s tea (as opposed to China and India that produce a lot of tea). However, due to its exceptional quality, Japanese Green Tea is definitely second to none!
