[What is Gyokuro]

``Tea'' is cultivated under cover and with the utmost effort. That is "Gyokuro". Gyokuro is grown by blocking the sun with ``reeds and straw'' once new buds begin to appear or about three weeks before tea picking. The shading rate (degree of blocking sunlight) starts at around 70%, and is grown at a shading rate of over 90% before tea picking. By blocking direct sunlight, this tea maximizes the theanine, which is the source of sweetness and flavor. It is characterized by the ``rich flavor and sweetness similar to seaweed'' that can only be enjoyed with Gyokuro.
[Okabe Gyokuro]

``Okabe Gyokuro'' is said to be one of the three major Gyokuro, along with ``Yame'' in Fukuoka and ``Uji'' in Kyoto, and is known for its aromatic gyokuro. Okabe Town, Shida District, Shizuoka Prefecture is located northwest of Shizuoka City. The clear Asahina River flows through the north and south of the town, and the town is surrounded by mountains on both sides, making it a mountainous area. Tea has been produced since the Muromachi period due to the ``climatic conditions unique to mountainous areas'' that are suitable for tea cultivation.
The production amount of Gyokuro is less than 0.2% of domestic green tea.

This product is ``Hon Gyokuro'' from Okabe, Shizuoka Prefecture, one of Japan's three major Gyokuro production areas. It is characterized by the ``rich flavor and sweetness similar to seaweed'' that can only be enjoyed with Gyokuro. The ``umami'', ``sweetness'', and ``fragrance'' are all the best. It's the ultimate tea. Please take the time to brew slowly and enjoy a moment of bliss.
