This is an amazing value for a very good gyokuro. You will probably pay 50-100% higher for the same amount of a comparable grade from another sender. I can't believe I'm able to afford this as an everyday gyokuro. Free shipping for orders over $36 shows how... (more)

The dry leaves a cut very fine, the color is a very dark green with a sweet and slightly vegetative aroma. The brewed leaves maintain their intense dark green color and have a sweet and more pronounced vegetative aroma. The liquor is clear with a bright, almost fluor... (more)

Great tea, especially for this price. Fresh, mellow, deep and subtle. It is also worth repeating that Hibiki-an's customer service is second to none. I continue being amazed that my orders take a week to reach me in a medium-sized city in Poland, with occasional cu... (more)

My tea-drinking ritual has become a twice-daily affair and I needed a good value tea to keep myself from going bankrupt. I decided to try the gyokuro superior, although I was expecting a real sacrifice of flavor from what I'm used to. I was very pleasantly surprise... (more)

I have tried many different types of Japan Teas while traveling to Japan every year. I no longer shop for tea to bring home with me. I just simply order online and have Hibiki-an ship it to me. I completely trust their quality and superb service. The tea I have fou... (more)

Gyokuro in general has a mellower flavor than what one would expect from Sencha. This tea in particular has a very fresh taste and grassy aroma that ends with a nice mellow sweetness. It is very nice, one of the very best gyokuro that I have tasted. The flavor is not... (more)

I have been enjoying Hibiki-an teas for 2 years now. I must say that the Gyokuro Superior is my favorite. I brew a two-quart pitcher of it on ice almost every other day. I cheat by using an ice tea machine with a heaping tablespoon of tea leaves. I prefer the sweet t... (more)

I have just opened up my second bag of Gyokuro Superior (2 months after I opened up the first one) and it tastes as fresh (and delicious) as the first one I opened when I received my package. I also just purchased some Gyokuro Imperial from a store in the USA, just to ... (more)

My first order from Hibiki-an contained a packet of the Gyokuro Premium, which I loved it lasted me just less than a month). I decided that this was the tea for me!! But upon doing the math and seeing what my yearly tea bill would be I had second thoughts and decided ... (more)
