Loose leaf green tea

Leaf tea 50 grams bag

The flowering of cherry blossoms (“sakura” in Japanese) reaches its peak between late march and early april, exactly when the plantations destined to processing gyokuro are shaded with mats to increase the sweetness in tea. “tears of jade” is one of the names of this amazing green tea, harvested only by hand in early spring. The overwhelming aroma is of flowery meadow and ocean; the flavour is round, soft and longlasting sweet.
