Because Mr. Sakamoto specializes in Gyokuro, he shades the tea plants for 3 weeks prior to the harvest, in order to boost the levels of theanine, caffeine and chlorophyll. This also creates a sweeter and more savory flavor in the tea. The soil on the farm of Mr. Sakamoto is incredibly soft, due to the diversity of flora and fauna on the field which loosens up the soil. This soft soil allows the roots to penetrate deeper into the ground and absorb more nutrients.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eHow to Prepare it\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAdd 2 grams of matcha to a bowl and then pour in 100-150ml of 160-175F water.
