Gyukuro from Teekauppa Chaya

Gyukuro

Green Tea by Teekauppa Chaya

The finest green tea from Japan. Tea plants are in shade before picking. This increases the amount of chlorophyll and decreases the amount of tannins.

My first cup of Gyokuro. I wasn’t sure what to expect after reading so much praise about this tea. It reminds me of sencha. I don’t think I can taste much difference between good sencha and this gyokuro. What does that tell? I have some great sencha? I think I like Tamaryokucha more, but this is a close second. I got lucky and bought this for half of the normal prise. Otherwise this is way over my tea budget.
