Uji Gyokuro
 
(3 reviews)  

Uji Gyokuro "Gyoku-Hou" - A very high quality first-flush gyokuro from Uji, near Kyoto. Gyokuro is shade grown before harvesting, giving it a greener color and sweeter taste. Once you learn to make it properly, you wil be hooked for life! Make sure to read our brewing instructions, as it is brewed differently than sencha.

Available in 100gm packages.

Easy to brew (as long as you follow the brewing instructions), this gyokuro is a high quality one.

I brew it at 2g/30ml water and got five good steeps of it.



Advantages: An excellent gyokuro

Disadvantages: I however prefer the kame-jirushi gyokuro.

This is definitely true quality!!
1g/30ml, 55C, 105sec first steep. No bitterness whatsoever, very very mellow, clear, sweet. Long buttery creamy after taste.

I have not tried the Kame but definitely up there among the best gyokuros I have tasted.

Advantages: Real Gem...

Hi, just wanted to let you know that this morning I received the teapot I purchased from your website.

It\'s really nice, I like it a lot and just brewed some sencha on it and it was really nice.

Many thanks for a nice smooth purchase and really quick delivery, it only took 3 days from date of posting to London, United Kingdom.

Regards

Hi Kevin,

I just wanted to take a moment to thank you for your excellent customer service in the past and for continuing to provide great products. In addition to your teas, the teaware available on the site is of excellent quality. I have ordered an Arita teacup from you, a matcha kit, and some other small tools, and I have just placed an order for the beautiful Obi Komon teacup. I'm very excited about receiving this, and I look forward to what you will be offering in the future.

Good luck this year!

Take care,

Andrew
