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.

Review comment
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.
I however prefer the kame-jirushi gyokuro.

Testimonials

Hello,
You sent a message, to my husband asking if everything was okay with his tea order. He bought two types of matcha and a matcha whisk for me as a Christmas gift and I love it!

I just wanted to let you know in case he didn't relay that information. I will definitely be considering ordering from you when my supply is finished!
Thanks so much for your service and great product.
Sincerely,
Barbara W

I first found o-cha.com using a search engine for green tea. I have not had such excellent tea since a friend from Japan brought some back for me.

In fact, one of my friends who livied in Japan for mant years commented that your tea took him back to his fondest memories of that time.

This has been a very wonderful experience to shop for tea and teaware.

Thank you for giving a little bit of Japan to me here in the U.S.
