Tea Garden - Japan Gyokuro Asahi

green tea, 50 g

Gyokuro Asahi is one of the best Japanese green teas, characterized by its dark green leaves and fantastic taste. Two weeks before harvesting, the tea bushes are covered with bamboo mats so that the leaves produce more chlorophyll (green dye) and the bush grows more slowly. It is one of the most sought-after types of green tea in the world. You must have heard of Japanese gyokuru. Perhaps because it is one of the most sought after and highest quality teas in the world. The unique way of growing it by covering the tea bushes with bamboo mats is behind the original taste that no other tea offers.

Where is Japan Gyokuro Asahi grown?

One of the best gyokura cultivars is Asahi, named after the city of the same name in Chiba Prefecture, Japan. What impresses most is the way the tea is grown. The tea bush is covered with bamboo mats for two to three weeks before harvesting, which can slow its growth and make its leaves produce more chlorophyll, the green dye behind their beautiful deep green colour.

Ingredients

Japanese green tea.

Preparation

Use one to two teaspoons of dried Gyokura leaves to make a 250 ml infusion. Then pour water at a temperature of 60 to 75 °C and leave to infuse for 2-3 minutes. If you leave the leaves to infuse for one or two minutes longer, you will get an even stronger flavour, which is never a bad thing. Beware, however, of unwanted bittering of the tea, which can occur if the water temperature is exceeded or the tea is overly steeped.

Storage

Store in a dry place.
