Hojicha (焙じ茶) meaning ‘roasted tea’, is a green tea although not green in colour. Unlike common green tea, the leaves of Hojicha are roasted, turning them a rich brown and creating a unique character with earthy undertones with a naturally sweet caramel aroma.
Made with perfectly roasted sencha green tea leaves, grown in Kagoshima prefecture on Kyushu Island, Japan
Easily dissolves to create rich and creamy lattes and tea infused desserts – enjoy the distinct notes of cocoa and caramel.
Almost all of the caffeine is extracted during the roasting process which makes Hojicha a perfect drink in the evening or for those sensitive to the effects of caffeine.
