About our organic gyokuro
This tea is cultivated and processed under conditions that comply with the requirements for JAS organic certification. Organically grown tea leaves are cultivated entirely through natural processes until harvested, so the size of the harvest and flavour of the tea vary from year to year. The difficulty of cultivating organic tea leaves of stable quality and quantity in challenging conditions makes them very rare. We think you will truly enjoy this organic gyokuro, which possesses a natural bold flavour and fragrance.
