Indulge in the exquisite Gyokuro green tea, renowned as 'jade dew' in Japan. This prized tea boasts a subtly sweet profile with a gentle, mild finish.
 
Gyokuro is meticulously made from the first tender leaf buds of the spring harvest. These tea leaves are grown beneath shade covers, often using reed or straw screens, for a 20-day period before the harvest begins.

Following careful picking, the leaves undergo a gentle steam treatment to prevent oxidation. Subsequently, they undergo an initial rolling and air-drying process, followed by a precise final rolling to achieve their distinct shape and flavour.

Hannah ★★★★★

That first steep tastes almost sweet, like a gentle broth, and the leaves are so fine they practically melt in the mouth. I’ve been brewing it cooler than my usual green tea and the mild finish really comes through. My one hundred gram pouch is going to be gone too fast.

Matthew ★★★★★

The pouch reseals tightly, so my stash stays fresh for weeks even after I open it daily. That subtle sweetness they mention really comes through on the second brew, smooth and gentle without any bitterness.

Zoe ★★★★★

First steep tastes like liquid silk, that 'jade dew' sweetness is exactly as described and lingers gently on the tongue. The 100g pouch is a generous size for everyday brewing, and the tea holds up beautifully across three infusions.
