Hojicha...Roasted Green Tea...
Product Details
Perfect Pairing of Japanese Tea.. And Food...
Hojicha is roasted Japanese Green Tea with notes of burnt sugar and caramel. A captivating tea...
Unlike the Japanese teas you may be used to, Hojicha is produced by roasting green tea which oxidizes the leaves, turning them brown, but brings out complex aroma notes distinct from those of an unoxidized Green Tea.
In addition, the roasting mitigates the caffeine yielding this tea pretty much caffeine-free!
Hojicha is perfect for enjoying any time. The cup characteristics of Hojicha are more like what you may think of as a Darjeeling or Oolong tea, but unless you've experienced it before, you would not initially guess that it comes from Japan.
Another advantage of Hojicha is how well it pairs with seafood, especially Japanese seafood.
