An ambrosia of umami flavor recalling the mists of Mt. Fuji, 180-year old Shogyokuen Tea Factory’s Fuji no Tsuyu, is a premium gyokuro, the best of Japan.

The only gyokuro sample I got in this order. I wanted to try a different company’s gyokuro, and an affordable one ($0.30/g) to see how it compares to more expensive versions.
A pretty great option for the price! I think the flavor is super well balanced and that’s the main strength of this gyokuro. The intensity is pretty high, but not extreme. Zero bitterness or astringency. Aftertaste lingers for probably 10 minutes at least, which is WILD. Somewhat energizing, but not a whole lot compared to other gyokuros I’ve tried.
