Gyokuro is a premium Japanese green tea known for its delicate flavor and rich aroma. It is grown in the shade for about three weeks before harvest, which enhances its sweetness and reduces bitterness. The leaves are hand-picked and carefully processed to preserve their vibrant green color and unique taste.
This tea is typically brewed at lower temperatures, around 50-60°C (122-140°F), to bring out its subtle flavors. Gyokuro is often enjoyed in traditional Japanese tea ceremonies and is considered one of the highest grades of green tea, making it a favorite among tea connoisseurs.
