Gyokuro (shaded tea) is one of the most expensive and rare (delicious) green teas in Japan...I've heard that (some of?) the best comes from the Uji district. My brother is travelling there soon, and I was wondering if the tea is much cheaper there...


The highest price I saw for Gyokuro when I visited Uji (for the very purpose of buying some high quality tea) was about 4200 yen (less than 30€) for a 100g.

There are certainly cheaper sorts of Gyokuro available in Japan (I bought a

Somebody told me that the green tea gyokuro actually contains B-12, but I can't find any information online. I suspect it's probably pseudo-B12 like what you can find in algae. Anybody happen to know?

  • Gyokuro Green Tea – What It Is And How To Brew It

    If you consider yourself an “advanced” green tea connoisseur, perhaps you may have considered or have even tried brewing gyokuro. Since good gyokuro is expensive, it’s common for people to try it once, not find it to their liking, and then give up on it. This is often a result of an enthusiast brewing it like they brew their normal sencha green tea . Once you have tried a good gyokuro brewed correctly, however, you will understand what a great green tea it actually is.

    In case you are not aware, gyokuro is shade grown green tea . About 3 weeks before the anticipated harvest date, the tea bushes are covered under 90% shade. This is accomplished by building an enclosure around the plants using bamboo poles covered with rice straw. All of this of course means extra labor, which has a lot to do with why gyokuro is so expensive in the first place. Obviously, there is a reason why growers go to all of this trouble – gyokuro is delicious!
