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.
