Our Gyokuro is a first flush blend crafted from three cultivars that represent the best of Kagoshima’s innovation and tradition: Saemidori, Asanoka, and Yabukita.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSaemidori brings a bright, silky sweetness; Asanoka layers in floral nuance; and Yabukita, Japan’s most beloved cultivar, anchors the blend with depth and balance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eShade-grown in Kagoshima’s volcanic soils and harvested at the peak of spring, this Gyokuro is elegant and vibrant, with an umami-rich body, a lingering sweetness, and a clean, refreshing finish. A rare blend of cultivars and terroir, it captures the essence of Kagoshima’s tea artistry.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe brewing process is key to unlocking the elegance of Gyokuro. It’s best prepared with water at just 165°F to gently coax out the complex flavor. When brewed correctly, the resulting cup is silky and elegant, offering a delicious drinking experience that reflects the care in every step of its cultivation and preparation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eUnlike sencha and other Japanese green teas, Gyokuro’s flavor profile is more mellow and luxurious, thanks to its unique shading and steaming techniques. The tea’s taste, smell, and texture vary slightly depending on how each plant is cultivated, shaded, and processed, making each harvest a distinctive expression of Japanese tea craftsmanship.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhether you enjoy it in quiet reflection or as part of a shared tea moment, each drink of Gyokuro connects you to the vibrant world of Japanese green teas. The plants that produce this exceptional tea thrive under the soft light of limited sun, and each steep reveals more of its rare, complex charm across multiple cups.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIf you love this one, check out our \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/marias-favorites\/products\/kukicha-green-tea\" title=\"Kukicha Tea\"\u003eKukicha Tea\u003c\/a\u003e!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFeatures:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eJapanese Gyokuro\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGyokuro imperial green tea\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOrigin: Kagoshima Prefecture, Japan\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCultivars: Saemidori, \u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003eAsanoka, and Yabukita\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSample ~ 5 servings\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1\/4 LB ~ 50 servings\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1\/2 LB ~ 110 servings\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLifestyle-Friendly: Vegan, Paleo, Keto, and Kosher Certified\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCaffeine: Medium\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e \u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIngredients:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e green tea\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout our Sachets:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv id=\"message-list_1771620761.513399\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003eOur tea sachets are made using NeoSoilon®, a non-GMO material derived from sugarcane.
