Green Tea Japan Gyokuro Asahi

Tootekirjeldus / Product Description:

Haruldus! Jaapanikeelne nimi Gyokuro tähendab umbkaudu ‘üllasi kastepiisasid’. See peen tee kuulub varjuteede kategooriasse. Umbes kaks nädalat enne koristamist kaetakse teepõõsad, nii tekib rohkem klorofülli, mille tulemuseks on ilus, läikiv, peaaegu sinakasroheline lehtede värvus. Lisaks arendatakse vähem tanniine ning suureneb kofeiini ja aminohapete sisaldus, luues selge umami maitse.
Tänaseni serveeritakse Gyokuro teed sageli eriti austatud külalistele Jaapanis. See tee avaldab muljet oma väga elegantse ja peene, kuid täidlase aroomiga ning selle tüüpilise, väga meeldiva magususevarjundiga.

A rarity! The Japanese name Gyokuro roughly means ‘noble dewdrops’. This exquisite tea belongs to the category of shade teas. About two weeks before harvesting begins, the tea bushes are covered, thus more chlorophyll is formed, resulting in a beautiful, shiny, almost blue-green leaf colour. In addition, fewer tannins are developed and the content of caffeine and amino acids increases, creating a distinct umami taste.
To this day, Gyokuro tea is often served especially to honoured guests in Japan. This tea impresses with its very elegant and fine, yet full-bodied aroma and its typical, very pleasant hint of sweetness.
