90

Such a smoooooth gyokuro. The umami flavor is just a hint when you swallow and let in more air. It quickly subsides and resolves in a cool, slightly sweet fruit note, mostly melon to my tongue. Did I experiment with this at 190? Yep. Was I rewarded with a new gyok experience? Yep. The leaves even gave a fairly nice second cup.

If it were a bit less expensive, this could be a sensible daily drinker.

Flavors: Green Melons, Sweet, Warm Grass, Umami

190 °F / 87 °C 2 min, 30 sec 1 tsp 6 OZ / 177 ML
