I loved this tea. It has a wonderful green color, and its flavor reflexes its poplarity in Japan
Steamed green tea from Japan. Gyokuro is among the finest of Japanese teas. Deeply sweet, aroma of freshly buttered greens - no grassiness or harshness. Soft on the palate with a balanced, delicate finish. Soothing and centering cup of tea.

Clean healthy taste. I have infused up to 3 times.
Nice flavor.
A darling little baby of a tea--all of Sencha's fresh-mown-morning flavor but even lighter and smoother due to the shading process. Good clear liquor--brew quickly at a lower temperature to keep the flavors mild and delicate as they are meant to be. Great brewed in a fine-mesh strainer like the Duet's. The Japanese live for this stuff--you will too.
Wonderful! Wish I would've ordered more than just the sample!
WOW Excellent, Different from other Green Tea
I LOVE this tea! While brewing it smelled like newly mown grass. Great crisp taste without being bitter.
This is by far the best green tea I have ever had. I suffer from depression and attention deficit disorder. This tea is amazing in that it makes me very focused and I end up accomplishing so many things. It tastes great. I recommend it!
At first I only bought a sample of this tea, because it is one of the more expensive types, but I'm coming back for more. Very tasty, and hard to accidentally brew bitter, unlike some green teas. A superior tea from a superior company.
Tast's like a freshly mowed lawn.
Great tea... after the genmai-cha, this is my second favorite.
This is what I expect a green to taste and smell like. It was about a notch and a half from perfection.
Big on aroma, beautiful color and smoothest taste I've encountered in any tea.
very light. nice green yellowish color. very clean and refreshing.
Gyokuro has a very nice flavor that reminds me of freshly-cut grass, which is nicer than that may sound. Still, I'm not sure it's worth the price to me.
Very nice and a light refresher. Tiny bit of sweetness. Overall a very pleasant cup of tea.
The flavor wise, I can get same or better quality at Japanese super market. But, no one can beat your price I think.
Surprisingly powerful. delicilous!
I'm more of a black tea fan but I liked this.
New to my taste buds.
Green tea is my drink of choice. Gyokuro has a very rich flavor--similar to good quality Sencha. Excellent.
A nice, smooth cup. Very soothing.
Nice flavor. Good aroma.
A little too grassy flavor to be one of my favorites!
This is a wonderful, light green tea. It has a slight spinach scent, which I find delightful but may be off-putting to some. I highly recommend it.
I like that a rare tea can be purchased here. It was very good.
Nice and sweet for a green tea. Little to no vegative taste. Good for the price, but still to be used sparingly.
This is a fabulous tea. Because of the price however, I reserve it as a special treat.
This is the best green tea I have had in a long time I would like to have more of this one from other regions maybe.
