Shaded from direct sunlight in the weeks before harvest, the leaves develop a rich umami sweetness and a vivid green colour that sets true gyokuro apart. Each sip unfolds slowly, with a smooth, lingering finish that rewards a quiet moment of stillness.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWeeds are cleared by hand. The tea plants grow freely, nurtured by clean mountain air and the quiet dedication of the farmers who tend them — sharing their fields with ladybugs, earthworms and butterflies. It's this harmony between farmer, plant and nature that gives the tea its character: grown with patience, and cherished cup after cup.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHow to Brew Gyokuro\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHot Tea (2 cups)\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e8g tea\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e100ml water, boiled then cooled to 50–60 degrees\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSteep for 120 seconds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor later brews only a short steeping time is required — increase the water temperature slightly with each brew.
