Product Description

Description

Competition-grade SAYURI is one of Kiya san’s most prestigious creations. Coming in 100g in a beautiful wooden box, this artistic blend of Yabukita, Goku and Kanaya cultivars is perfectly balanced to bring out the sweetness, umami and light astringency that are the signature tastes of high-end gyokuro. Its taste is deep, multi-layered and leaves an extraordinary lingering feeling on your tongue.

It benefits from the GI red mark, a label recognizing its Yame origins and the fact that it was handpicked and processed according to strict traditions. This gyokuro can be easily rebrewed up to 5 times.

Our tea tasting expert Alex says in his review notes: “As the liquor passed my lips, a sweet and umami-rich flavor filled my mouth and coated the sides of my mouth. I tasted the complexity of the tea as soon as the liquor touched the tip of my tongue. The medium green liquor had layered hues of green and a persistent vegetal character that lasted for minutes after I took my first sip. In the back of my throat, notes of fresh dark leafy greens, like spinach and chard, and a hint of shellfish lingered.”

*This tea is prepared at time of order by Tea Master Kiya san and ships within 5-7 business days.
