Gyokuro Joshu by Marukyu Koyamaen is a high grade gyokuro with deep, jewel green leaves. The aroma is deep and intense with the sweet floral scent of jasmine. The first brew is savoury with deep vegetal and umami flavours. The mouthfeel is luxurious and smooth. Joshu is am elegant medium bodied gyokuro with more depth and complexity. Gyokuro tea is cultivated in the same process as Tencha (used for matchas) and presented as rolled leaves that support multiple brews. The 2nd and 3rd infusions draw out its deeper umami flavours and the seaweed and savoury notes develop. Joshu has a similar profile to the full-bodied matchas in the ceremonial line. Enjoy Joshu in the mornings or as an afternoon tea with desserts that enhances its floral scent and creamy taste like shortbread biscuits, scones and tarts.
Marukyu Koyamaen's '丸久小山園', history spans 300 years, and epitomises a commitment to quality in tea production. Located in the heart of Uji, Kyoto, this esteemed tea grower, procurer, and blender boasts a private estate dating back to 1704.

Favoured by the tea schools, shrines, temples and widely seen in the kitchens of some of the world's best restaurants and hotels, the Marukyu Koyamaen name today is far reaching and widely recognised.
