Gyokuro Green Tea is a premium Japanese green tea crafted using traditional shade-growing techniques. Before harvest, the tea plants are carefully shaded, a method that helps create Gyokuro’s signature deep green leaves and rich, nuanced flavor.

Many tea drinkers choose Gyokuro Green Tea for its smooth texture and distinctive umami character. Its refined profile offers a balanced cup with vegetal depth, gentle sweetness, and a lingering finish that sets it apart from more common green teas.

As a naturally caffeinated green tea, Gyokuro Green Tea is often enjoyed in the morning or early afternoon. It is typically brewed with cooler water and shorter steep times to highlight its delicate complexity and prevent bitterness.

Gyokuro Green Tea is part of our Green Teas collection and our Caffeinated Teas selection. You may also enjoy exploring our Robust & Bold and Iced Tea Friendly collections for additional premium green tea options.

This tea is ideal for those who enjoy high-grade Japanese green teas, umami-forward flavor profiles, and mindful tea rituals centered around craftsmanship and tradition.
