Organic Gyokuro

by tsai_time » Oct 19th, '15, 12:45

Would like to try Gyokuro tea and have been drinking organic matcha and sencha for the last year. Why are there so few sources for organic Gyokuro as compared to match and sencha (low production, quality, etc..) ? Any recommendations ?

Thanks!

I don't know about Japanese tea specifically, however I do know that when it comes to tea, the word 'organic' should be taken with a grain of salt unless its certified by a reputable source.

True, even though I would trust a Japanese Organic label much more than.. well.. some other labels :)
Yuuki-Cha has some, and Yunomi.life has a lot of stuff, too.
