Dear friends, We would like to once again offer Ippodo's Tokusen Gyokuro [特撰玉露] ! Normally only sold in-person at their main store in Kyoto, this is the same special gyokuro that was offered last year (see here and here ).

Does anyone know why my reading are lower than the 75% noted in the references in the original post? put a shot glass or bottle cap of saturated NaCl solution (+ excess NaCl) in a high quality ziplock bag or a canning jar or something w...
