Hint:
Dear customers,

the first Shinchas of this year have arrived and are available here.

Gyokuro

Gyokuro is a so-called "shadow tea". This means that the tea is shaded for 21-40 days before harvesting.
This gives it a particularly distinctive umami and is very mild in taste.

Yamashita Premium Gyokuro Set
Yamashita Premium Gyokuro Set
Toshikazu Yamashita (shown on the fifth photo) is Japan's most famous Gyokuro master who revolutionized tea production in Japan. For age reasons, however, he left the entire production to his grandson, who after 2018 also won the Kansai competition in 2019. Please do not confuse this with Yamashita Shuppin, Yashiki no cha or Takumi - the quality of these is considered lower.
Thanks to our personal relationship with Mr. Yamashita, we are able to offer teas from small batches exclusively, which are not even available on the Japanese market.

This consists of the following teas:

Yamashita Competition Grade Gyokuro "Gokô"

Yamashita Hand-Picked Gyokuro "Kyômidori"

Yamashita Hand-Picked Gyokuro "Asahi"

Harvest year: 2020
