No the picture shows Chitose no Homare, and I didn`t have it yet, I only had sencha looking that fine. I just showed how the best quality usually looks like, and Bassaro had Hoshino`s award winning gyokuro, boy that looked fine, and I regret that I haven`t tried it, I am obsessed with gyokuro, so price never scared me, I just say that it is worth the sacrifice, even if I spend a whole months buget on something like this, anyway gyokuro is not somthing from wich one could get an average priced one tasting similar to an expencieve one, so if you want great taste, you need to sacrifice money, sometimes I whish I was so rich that I would not care about the money, I would spoil myself pink. (sweet dreams award wining gyokuro, taiwanese high mountaing oolong, and aged wild sheng puerh)
