Japanese Green Tea- Best-selling Guri Green Tea (Sealed bag of 50 pyramid tea-bags)

What makes Sugiyama Guri Green Tea different?

The teabags! Yes, this is Japanese Green Tea, direct from Japan. The fact that it is delicious, fresh green tea is to be expected. But that you can get high-quality tea in easy-to-use tea bags is not. The tea bags are made of a very fine nylon and in the shape of a pyramid, allowing for much greater cup quality and flow without unwanted tea leaves loose in your cup. There is no string attached to the bags, so you can drop them right in your tea pot or cup. Each bag contains 5g of high quality Sugiyama Guri Green Tea.

Green tea that's really green! (See detailed photos below.) Good hot or iced.

What is Guri-cha?

  “Guricha of Sugiyama” is produced by steaming green tea leaves deeply into the core and slowly for a long time. It is distinguish from the conventional type of “sencha (refined green tea)” by its elimination of the final kneading and leaf-reshaping process during the production of "aracha (unrefined tea)." It prevents fresh leaves from degradation, and thus extracts a greater amount of green tea components coming out from leaves. This unique production method can contain and preserve the essential flavor of green tea. 

  “Guricha or Guri-tea” is named from its shape similar to “guri” which represents the pattern of elaborately-coated red lacquer ware, or the whirlpool-like arabesque design. The official name of the product is steamed rounded green tea.
