Gyokuro Kanro Tea

Kanro’s name means “sweet dew. " This tea has a plentiful, rich character until the last drop. The main difference between Gyokuro and Sencha is that Gyokuro green tea is shade-grown and harvested only once a year in spring. This shading of the Gyokuro tea plants ensures that the natural antioxidant and anti-irritant properties associated with the plants are maximized to the utmost.

Kanro's plentiful umami and long finish make it a good Gyokuro for slowly sipping in small servings. It has a concentrated flavor, just like freshly squeezed tea leaves.

Try this tea for your first taste of Ippodo Gyokuro. Make sure to "cool the water thoroughly."

Ippodo Tea was established in Kyoto in 1717.
