The tea trees here are harvested only once a year, in the spring, and weeds are almost never cut back \u2013 except for once in the autumn.<\/p>\n<p>The semi-wild environment is reflected in the finished tea which Mr. Yamazaki, as a matter of principle, does not subject to any final sorting step. Large and beautifully rolled emerald green leaves blend naturally with their stems and smaller leaf particles, providing us the opportunity to savour the entire Samidori leaf \u2013 a classic Kyoto cultivar.<\/p>\n<p>The gentle farming method combined with this unsorted nature of the tea leaves bestows Kamo Gyokuro with a clean and natural form of expression. A mild, yet complex sweetness bring to mind the tastes of warm soy milk and scallop sashimi in a natural sensation of umami that is deep, but never heavy. The umami sensation gently coats the mouth and lingers patiently at the back of the tongue, while a brighter spectrum of floral notes, present not least in the nose, delicately complements the rich and savoury aftertaste, reminding us of sakura trees in bloom. Indeed, taking a sip of Kamo Gyokuro is almost like taking a small sip of spring itself!<\/p>\n<hr>\n<h4 style=\"text-align: left;\">Tea trees | <span lang=\"ja\">\u8336\u6a39<\/span><\/h4>\n<p><strong>Cultivar:<\/strong> Samidori<\/p>\n<p><strong>Age:<\/strong> unknown<\/p>\n<p><strong>Altitude:<\/strong> 200masl<\/p>\n<p><strong>Shade:<\/strong> <em>kanreisha<\/em> covering 21 days prior to harvest<\/p>\n<p><strong>Fertilisation:<\/strong> none<\/p>\n<p><strong>Cultivation method:<\/strong> natural farming (read more about organic and natural farming <a href=\"https:\/\/www.io-te.dk\/en\/organic-and-natural-farming\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">here<\/span><\/a>)<\/p>\n<p><strong>Harvest:<\/strong> May 17th 2022<\/p>\n<h4 style=\"text-align: left;\">Production method | <span lang=\"ja\">\u88fd\u8336\u65b9\u6cd5<\/span><\/h4>\n<p><strong>Steaming:<\/strong> medium (<em><em>futs\u016bmushi<\/em>)<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em><strong>Hi-ire:<\/strong><\/em> none<\/p>\n<h4 style=\"text-align: left;\">Producer | <span lang=\"ja\">\u751f\u7523\u8005<\/span><\/h4>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">Tokuya Yamazaki at Kamo Shizen N\u014den <span lang=\"ja\">\u52a0\u8302\u81ea\u7136\u8fb2\u5712<\/span><\/p>\n<h4 style=\"text-align: left;\">Origin | <span lang=\"ja\">\u7523\u5730<\/span><\/h4>\n<p>Kamo in Kyoto, Japan<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<h4><span lang=\"ja\">\u52a0\u8302 \u7389\u9732<\/span><\/h4>\n<h5>Naturally farmed Samidori Gyokuro harvested after twenty-one days of <em>kanreisha<\/em> shade in May 2022 by Tokuya Yamazaki at Kamo Shizen N\u014den in Kamo, Kyoto.<\/h5>\n<h5>A smooth and velvety tea combining refreshing floral notes with rich umami sweetness that naturally lingers in the mouth long after the final sip.<\/h5>\n<p><em style=\"font-size: 20px;\">soya milk \u2013 scallop sashimi \u2013 sakura blossoms <\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":13794,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":[],"product_brand":[],"product_cat":[99,204,210,191],"product_tag":[132],"class_list":["post-13810","product","type-product","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","product_cat-gyokuro-tea","product_cat-kamo-shizen-noen-kyoto","product_cat-natural-farming","product_cat-tea","product_tag-gyokuro-en","first","outofstock","taxable","shipping-taxable","purchasable","product-type-simple"],"jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.io-te.dk\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product\/13810","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.io-te.dk\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.io-te.dk\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/product"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.io-te.dk\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=13810"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.io-te.dk\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/13794"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.io-te.dk\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=13810"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"product_brand","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.io-te.dk\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_brand?post=13810"},{"taxonomy":"product_cat","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.io-te.dk\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_cat?post=13810"},{"taxonomy":"product_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.io-te.dk\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_tag?post=13810"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
