Lao - Gyokuro Okabe

Each bottle of Gyokuro Okabe begins with a fermented tea base, aged for over three months to build natural acidity, smooth texture, and a long, clean finish.

To this base, we blend hot and cold infusions — steeped for 48 hours — of precisely selected Gyokuro leaves from Okabe, Japan. This shade-grown tea is known for its gentle umami, sweet vegetal notes, and exceptional aromatic finesse.

Our infusion process is designed to preserve the integrity of the leaf, revealing stone fruit aromas, soft tannins, and a luminous, fruit-forward structure.

We then add a small amount of organic cane sugar, not so much to sweeten, but to support balance and mouthfeel.

Finally, the blend is gently carbonated and pasteurized.

No added flavours. No preservatives.

Just tea, at its most vibrant.

Appearance: Clean effervescence and opulent texture.

Aroma: Captivating scents of tropical fruits and sweet spices.

Palate: A buttery edge rises to flavors of peaches, pears and honeydew melon, followed by a finish that evokes the bitterness of a peach pit.

Served in a flute, Gyokuro Okabe pairs just as well with delicate dishes as with more indulgent ones, where its fruity freshness and balanced tension help lighten and elevate the experience.
