This gyokuro shiraore consists of a blend of tea stems, stalks and twigs which come from the production of gyokuro. This is the reason why it is considered to be the highest quality of kukicha. Similar to a gyokuro, with shiraore tea, one will experience umami which comes from the high theanine content. While in Kyushu (the most southern island), the people call this type of tea shiraore, Kyoto folks call it karigane.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eProduct Info\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eName\u003c\/strong\u003e: Gyokuro Shiraore \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eJapanese name\u003c\/strong\u003e: 玉露白折\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIngredients\u003c\/strong\u003e: Green tea\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eIngredients: 100% Yamecha green tea leaf stems \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRegion:\u003c\/strong\u003e Yabe Village, \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/yumenet.live\/blogs\/japanese-tea-guide\/does-the-best-gyokuro-come-from-yame?_pos=1\u0026amp;_sid=be20cc264\u0026amp;_ss=r\"\u003eYame City, Fukuoka Prefecture\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNotes\u003c\/strong\u003e: Machine harvested\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eVendor Info\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cspan\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eName\u003c\/strong\u003e: \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eKurihara Seicha Ltd.\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMembers\u003c\/strong\u003e: Kippei, Yuji, and Akio Kurihara (Father and sons)\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cspan\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLocation\u003c\/strong\u003e: \u003c\/span\u003e\u003ca href=\"http:\/\/goo.gl\/maps\/R6mFn\" target=\"_blank\"\u003e4236 Kita Yabe, Yabe-mura, Yame-shi, Fukuoka Prefecture 834-1401, JAPAN\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSize of fields\u003c\/strong\u003e: About 3 hectares\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cspan\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAltitude of fields\u003c\/strong\u003e: \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e300 - 700 meters\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Kurihara Tea Farm","offers":[{"title":"[2026] 10g \/ 0.35 oz \/ Yunomi Sample Bag","offer_id":48067075440745,"sku":"kht5001-010-y26","price":600.0,"currency_code":"JPY","in_stock":true},{"title":"[2026] 100g \/ 3.5 oz \/ Original bag (package design may varies)","offer_id":32427599365,"sku":"kht5001-100-y26","price":2600.0,"currency_code":"JPY","in_stock":true},{"title":"[2026] MULTIPACK 1kg (100g x 10 original bags) \/ 2.2 lbs (package design may varies)","offer_id":4101520581,"sku":"kht5001-100x10-y26","price":25000.0,"currency_code":"JPY","in_stock":true},{"title":"[2026] 1kg \/ 2.2 lbs \/ Bulk bag","offer_id":47808163086441,"sku":"kht5001-1kg-y26","price":23000.0,"currency_code":"JPY","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0926\/4578\/files\/20240215_113047_0000.png?v=1707966699"},{"product_id":"obubu-11-hojicha-basic-roast-roasted-green-tea","title":"#0011 Obubu Tea: Hojicha (Basic Roast), Roasted Green Tea","description":"\u003ch2 style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003eMultiple levels of roasting, multiple base tea leaves, and each delicious to the last drop.\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003e\u003cem style=\"font-size: 75%;\"\u003eFeel free to re-steep cup after cup after cup...\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"twocol\"\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/yumenet.live\/collections\/hojicha\"\u003eRoasted green tea, or Houjicha (or hojicha ほうじ茶 \/ 焙じ茶),\u003c\/a\u003e has a smooth, slightly smoky flavor that is simultaneously light and sweet, hojicha has none of the bitterness of traditional green teas.
