Shiun Gyokuro by Marukyu Koyamaen
A moment of stillness. A deep breath. A cup of Shiun Gyokuro.
Handcrafted by the esteemed tea artisans at Marukyu Koyamaen, Shiun—meaning “purple cloud”—evokes the soft elegance of morning mist rolling over Uji’s lush tea fields. This premium gyokuro offers an exquisite, full-bodied experience unlike any other Japanese green tea. Its leaves are carefully shaded for weeks before harvest, developing a rich, buttery umami and soft vegetal sweetness that lingers delicately on the palate.
Brew it slowly at a low temperature to unlock its refined complexity—ideal for slow mornings, afternoon resets, or intentional rituals that deserve your full attention. Whether you’re a longtime Japanese tea lover or new to gyokuro, Shiun invites you to discover green tea at its most luxurious.
