Gyokuro, also called "precious dew", is by far the best tea variety in Japan. Some even call it the best green tea in the world. It is cultivated with the greatest care. About three weeks before harvesting, the entire plantation is covered with reed mats or dark nets. The leaves , which thus develop in the dark, have a higher chlorophyll content. This gives them a dark green colour and a lower tannin content. This makes the taste particularly Aroma tic and mild. This shade tea is harvested only once a year, only the bud, and if quality permits, the first leaf. In Japan, Gyokuro is only served to honourable guests. In Europe, too, it has become one of the most precious tea s.

Sencha , the most widely drunk tea in Japan, is available in many quality grades. We offer a special top quality with a dark green leaf and a Fine, mild taste.

The name comes from the Japanese word "Kuki" = stem. The main part are leaf stalks, which are sieved out during Sencha and Bancha production. The tea is mild and has a very low caffeine content.
