The young grassiness of this translucent green liquor is the distilled refinement of nature’s grace. The cup has the pristine sweetness of green beans eaten right off the vine with the aroma of backyard tomato plants. Classy and timeless.

A blend of teas produced in the spring of 2025 from Ayabe City, Fukuchiyama City and Maizuru City - all in Kyoto Prefecture. It’s known as Ryotan Cha (Ryotan is a geographical area within Kyoto), which has its own local standards for production, including only harvesting once a year. The plants used to make Gyokuro are deliberately shaded for at least 20 days before harvesting, producing unique chemical changes to the leaf.

This one hits the spot! A bold enough flavor that’s never bitter or overpowering. Grassy and delicious. The perfect green tea!

Gazebo Gyokuro | Green Tea

A really nice cup of Japanese green tea. I love Japanese greens and save this one for special occasions since it's a little pricey, but it is worth he cost!

Gazebo Gyokuro | Green Tea

I've been drinking and exploring Gyokuro, and now having tried 13 different ones I can say this started out very promising (the leaf is large, beautiful, and evenly dark-green), and ended the most disappointing. Here's my favorite way of brewing Gyokuro: Leaf/Water Ratio: 6g per 100ml Steep 1: room-temp water for 14 minutes Steep 2: 60c water for 90 seconds Steep 3: 65c water for 90 seconds The very best Gyokuro have even survived a 4th steep with 70c water for 90 seconds This Gyokuro brewed with my favorite parameters was basically good for one steep: 1st steep = delicious 2nd steep = bland 3rd steep = water 4th steep = didn't even try 2 stars because the leaf is beautiful and the first steep is delicious, but you get very little bang for your buck. This is a super expensive Gyokuro ($0.61/g ($17.29/oz) at time of purchase), especially when you consider only getting one good steep out of it.

I was given a sample of this special Japanese tea. I always wanted to try their Gyokuro. This batch was very vegetable with almost no bitterness. Smells like sweet fresh cut grass and sweet peas. Almost tastes herbal.
