Hojicha is one of Japan's most comforting teas, created by gently roasting green tea to develop rich, warming aromas and a remarkably smooth finish. The roasting process transforms the fresh vegetal character of the leaves into flavours of toasted nuts, caramel and cocoa while naturally reducing bitterness and caffeine.
Our Organic Hojicha is produced by the Kinezuka family in the mountain tea gardens of Fujieda, Shizuoka, using organically grown tea that is expertly roasted to create a balanced, full-bodied cup. Rich yet remarkably gentle, it is equally suited to slow evenings, after meals or whenever you're looking for a calming cup.
In the cup, it is warming and aromatic, with layers of toasted hazelnuts, roasted barley, caramel and cocoa, finishing with delicate woody notes that linger beautifully.
