Gyokuro is a famous Japanese tea meaning ‘jade dew.’ It is made from bushes that are covered for 16 days to block out the sun. Gyokuro has a good balance of sweetness and umami flavors. Yame Gyokuro Grade 1 is from Yame, a region on the southern island of Kyushu renowned for the high-quality gyokuro it produces.

Gyokuro is made only from the youngest leaves of the first flush. Tea bushes for gyokuro are covered with mats to block the direct sun in early April. This prevents a type of amino acid in the leaves from changing into more bitter catechins, and it preserves umami and sweet flavors. Gyokuro is considered the most exquisite of all Japanese teas.
