Hot water being poured into Japanese artisan made ivory kyusu Japanese teapot from shining stainless steel stovetop kettle

Piping Hot Gyokuro

Aromatic, soothing, and cozy. Hot brewing brings out a vivid fragrance from gyokuro leaves. In the cup, this recipe has more a little crisp, refreshing astringency, on top of gyokuro's dew-like sweetness. Recommended for light and medium category gyokuro blends.
