Enjoy the light umami and mellow astringency
Gyokuro allows you to fully appreciate subtle astringency together with the umami that is characteristic of Japanese tea. Tekiro is very easy to drink, and therefore a good choice for people new to gyokuro. It can be prepared with boiling hot water that has been slightly cooled to savor a verdant umami flavor that is unique to gyokuro, or with boiling hot water to enjoy the light, refreshing flavor for which Japanese tea is so well known.
Tekiro gyokuro offers a unique depth of flavor—its taste changes depending on whether you prepare it with boiled water that has been slightly cooled or with boiling hot water.
Tekiro now comes in a newly designed can, with a color reminiscent of the translucent hue of gyokuro. The eye-catching package makes a delightful impression.
Drink it for your own enjoyment, or give it as a little present.
