tea. It has 9 times more beta carotene than spinach. Along with its
high chlorophyll content, Matcha also contains essential vitamins, minerals
and desease fighting nutrients. This organic tea has a sweet, buttery
and rich oceanic taste.

Gyokuro
Also known as "Precious Dew Pearl", this is a highly famous
tea from Japan. It requires more skillful and careful selection of leaves
than other green teas. At the end of the growing season, the tea plants
are covered by tarps and bamboo mats for three weeks before plucking.
This shade grown process enhances the deep green color, flavor and anti-oxidant
properties.
Jasmine Pearls
Highest grade and rare green jasmine tea from China. Prized, as it is
made only with the top growth and tender leaf tips. The leaves are heat
infused with the correct balance of fragrant jasmine blossoms for several
hours. This process is repeated four times then the leaves are carefully
hand rolled into small pearls and are a delight to watch slowly "unfurl"
as they steep. A very fragrant, sweet, and refreshing tea.
