Our timeless Premium Gyokuro from Okabe region in Shizuoka. This tea has been a mainstay of our offerings since we opened our store in 2005. This Gyokuro Imperial is one of our best sellers and is very popular with our clients.
This Imperial Gyokuro has a very pleasant sweetness and the taste prolongs after drinking. The tea is rich in L-Theanine that is believed to help relaxation and a general feeling of well-being. This is a very aromatic, smooth full-bodied Gyokuro, everything one would expect from a traditional Gyokuro of finest quality.
Okabe region in Shizuoka is known for producing fine Gyokuro. The region’s long-time tea-making experience and expertise result in this exceptional Gyokuro tea. We believe this to be one of our finest teas.
