Brief (few seconds) steeps in 70 Celsius water. Liquor is an almost-clear light green in look. Taste is smooth and sweet in umami. The umami level is soft but no bitterness at all despite I use a higher temperature than recommended. Mouthfeel is slightly sticky and the aftertaste remains for a long while. Wet leaves are freshly green, giving off a light seaweed aroma that is also vegetal. By the 5th infusion the sweetness mellows down and starts to give a vegetal note.

Gyokuro Oku no Tsuyu tea did not disappoint. At first infusion, it has a sweetness taste to it, and a lot of umami. Second to fifth infusions there are a little bit of bitterness to it. An excellent sincha.

This tea caught my attention immediately, I was always curious what a shin gyokuro would be like. And it did not disappoint! At first it has a slightly more mellow taste than most other gyokuro with a strong umami taste, but then a strong, raw aftertaste follows that is so unique to shincha. It is a great, interesting balance of sweet, silky and astringent.
