Gyokuro Kuki-Cha Twig Tea (Blender's Series)

Green Tea by Maeda-en

Our Blender’s Gyokuro Kuki-cha is made from the stems of the Gyokuro tea. This decadent tea has a lingering sweetness and has an earthier tinge than leaf Gyokuro.

Brewing instructions are similiar to Gyokuro, but just a notch higher in temperature to bring out all the subtle flavors. We recommend: 1 tablespoon of leaves, steeped in 8 to 12 ounces of warm water (140 to 160F) for 2-3 minutes.

yum-O :)

complex, with a dynamic flavor profile – first a mellow savoriness envelopes the palate, and slowly gives way to the subtle sweetness that gyokuro is known for. Full bodied, with a lingering finish that makes you crave for more.
