Gyokuro Shaded Imperial Japanese Premium Green Tea Gyokuro is a special type of green tea shaded from the sun for 20 dayswith specially made mats which allows the caffeine levels to increasein the leaves, in addition to allowing the amino acids to get stronger,producing a sweeter and stronger flavor.

Benefits of Covering/ Shading

Due to the special net covering sunlight, the tea leaves increasechlorophyll, making the color of the tea to be darker green; tea made from such leaves creates beautiful emerald green color which is rare to see in another type of green tea. Theanine (element of umami) increases by this approach making the tea less bitter and mellow taste.
