Hojicha

Discover the comforting warmth of Hojicha, a traditional Japanese green tea that takes on its distinctive amber-brown color through the gentle roasting of tea leaves over charcoal. This unique roasting process transforms the tea's fresh grassy notes into a smooth, nutty cup with subtle mesquite-like undertones and a naturally mellow finish. Because roasting also reduces the tea's caffeine content, Hojicha is an excellent choice for those seeking a gentler alternative to traditional green tea. Enjoy it any time of day—from a peaceful morning to a relaxing evening—as a soothing, full-flavored tea that delivers exceptional character without overwhelming bitterness. Tasting Notes: Toasted, nutty, smooth, with delicate mesquite-like sweetness. Caffeine Level: Low This tea contains a moderate level of caffeine | Steep at 180° for 2-3 minutes.
