Discover the Best Organic Gyokuro Green Tea: Haruto

Indulge in the exquisite taste of Haruto, the best organic gyokuro green tea. This new and rare variety of gyokuro green tea was registered only 8 years ago. Grown by a select few farms in Kyushu, our Haruto is cultivated in Shibushi City, Kagoshima Prefecture. This tea is harvested earlier in the season, making it susceptible to frost damage, which adds to its rarity and exceptional quality.

Why Choose Organic Gyokuro Haruto?

• Exclusive Rarity: With its limited cultivation and recent introduction, encountering Organic Gyokuro Haruto is a unique opportunity.
• Award-Winning Quality: This high-quality green tea has been recognized with awards in Japan for its elegant sweetness, rich umami, and dark green tea leaves.
• Organic Excellence: Unlike many organic gyokuro green teas, Haruto stands out with its superb quality, making it a rare gem in the tea world. Due to the restrictions on growing organic green teas, it's extremely difficult to find an organic gyokuro that tastes as good as non-organic gyokuro, but Haruto is one of the rare exceptions.

A Worthwhile Investment

While Organic Gyokuro Haruto may be priced higher than regular sencha, its exceptional quality and rarity justify the cost. Less than 1% of all green tea is grown and harvested as gyokuro, and an organic variety of this caliber is even more uncommon.

Brewing Perfection

Haruto, the best organic gyokuro green tea, offers complex, strong umami notes and a delightful aftertaste that lingers. For the best experience, brew it in a shiboridashi teapot with care, following our detailed brewing instructions: How to Brew Gyokuro - Step-by-Step Instructions! Once you master the art of brewing gyokuro, you'll be hooked for life.
