Uji Gyokuro Yūgen

Product Description — Uji Gyokuro “Yūgen” (宇治 玉露) — Kyoto, Japan (50g)

Refined, calm, and deeply satisfying—Uji Gyokuro “Yūgen” is a premium shaded green tea from Uji, Kyoto, a birthplace of Japan’s most celebrated tea culture. Crafted to highlight gyokuro’s signature character, this tea delivers a silky mouthfeel, rich umami, and a gentle natural sweetness, finishing clean with a lingering, elegant aroma.

In the cup, expect a smooth, mellow body with layered notes of sweet greens, soft savory depth, and a refined, almost creamy finish when brewed at lower temperatures. The bitterness stays minimal, letting the tea’s umami and fragrance take center stage. It’s the kind of tea that feels luxurious without being heavy—perfect for a slow morning ritual, a quiet afternoon reset, or a special tea to serve guests.

For the best flavor, brew “Yūgen” cool and slow to bring out its sweetness and umami, then enjoy multiple infusions to explore how the taste evolves from deep and rich to lighter and more aromatic.
