[2026 Spring Harvest] Organic Uji Gyokuro -Jyu 100g(Tin)

Ceremonial Grade – Elegant, Rich, and Full of Umami Known as the “umami king of Japanese tea,” Gyokuro is a shade-grown green tea renowned for its rich, savoury taste. Grown under shade for several weeks before harvest, the leaves develop higher levels of L-theanine, resulting in a deep, fresh umami flavour with less bitterness and a smooth, lingering sweetness. This ceremonial silver-grade Gyokuro is crafted in Uji, Kyoto, from the finest first harvest (一番茶) leaves, produced under Japan’s JAS organic standards to ensure purity and quality. Carefully steamed and rolled, it preserves the delicate character and refined flavour that make Uji Gyokuro one of Japan’s most treasured teas. Presented in a traditional Japanese tea tin, it ensures freshness and also makes an elegant gift.
