Kuradashi Gyokuro Karigane

Mellow Umami and deep flavor tea

Kuradashi gyokuro karigane is a tea made from only the stem of Gyokuro and stored in a storehouse. The storehouse protects the tea from the heat of the summer months and allows its taste to develop the mellow Umami and deep flavor that tea naturally possesses. In autumn the tea is removed from the storehouse.

How to store green tea:

Green tea benefits from being stored in a cool dry place where the temperature does not fluctuate very much. Tea is very good at absorbing odours so keep it away from anything smelly.
After opening the package, please close the lid firmly and keep it in a refrigerator. Please remember that tea is a fresh product and short-term use after opening is strongly recommended.
