1. What is Gyokuro?

Gyokuro is a special green tea that is considered to be of high quality among Japanese teas.
The cultivation method is unique in that the tea fields are covered to block out direct sunlight for about 15 to 20 days before harvest.
This "cover cultivation" method produces the mellow, deep flavor (amino acids) and sweetness that are unique to Gyokuro.
As the name suggests, the beautiful, jewel-like tea leaves and clear, dew-like flavor have captivated many people.
