Premium Hojicha Powder (Shizuoka)

Description Made from spring-harvested Japanese green tea leaves, this hojicha is lightly steamed before being roasted at high temperature, a process that preserves the integrity of the leaf while allowing deeper aroma and flavour to develop. The roasting transforms the tea into a warm, toasty profile with a smooth, rounded body and naturally reduced bitterness. The result is a hojicha that feels grounded and easy to enjoy, with a clean finish that doesn’t linger harshly. Compared to matcha, hojicha offers a more mellow and comforting experience, with a softer flavour profile that suits both traditional preparation and modern use. Best for hojicha lattes, iced drinks, baking & desserts, and daily use. A note on packaging: Pouch colours may vary. Colours are assigned at random and cannot be selected at this time.
