From two leaves and a bud

This incredible Japanese tea is steamed as it dries, yielding a sweet, light flavor with no bitterness. Like all high quality Japanese green teas, this tea is green, not brown.“Tama” means round.“® yokucha” means green tea – so “round green tea.” This extremely green tea is finished in the shade – it is covered for the last few weeks of growth to preserve the chlorophyll. This gives it a full and complex flavor. It is a “Gyokuro” style tea – the most sought-after of all Japanese green teas.

This was my first time trying this brand and this type of green tea, and I was pretty impressed. The sachet was silky and had plenty of space for the leaves to infuse. The flavor was very mild and lightly sweet. Of the new teas I have sampled (from a traveling tea box) this week, this one is so far, my favorite. I will most likely purchase this tea in the future.
