I asked a friend of mine to bring me some Gyokuro tea from Japan.

He did, and brought a set of three different teas without a single latin character neither on the box nor on the cans.

I know there are some Japanese-speaking people on this forum. Please help ID which one says what.

Thanks in advance.

Is this the appropriate forum? Well, anyway.

Green: 鹿児島 煎茶 かなやみどり (Kagoshima / sencha / kanayamidori)
Red: 宇治 玉露 やぶきた (Uji / gyokuro / yabukita)
Blue: 八女 煎茶 やぶきた (Yame / sencha / yabukita)
(product district / type / cultivar)
Also, "伊藤園" (Ito-en) as the distributor.

Sencha is the most common, standard Japanese green tea. Gyokuro is well... gyokuro. I see no further information is necessary.
