Traditional Japanese roasted tea – mild, aromatic & low in caffeine
100 grams
Hōjicha is a roasted green tea popular in Japan, characterized by its warm, roasted flavor and low caffeine content . The so-called Kyoto roast is particularly characteristic: Developed in Kyoto in the 1920s, the tea leaves are roasted at high temperatures—a process that creates intense, smoky flavors and gives the tea its reddish-brown color .
This unique production process distinguishes Hōjicha from other Japanese teas such as Sencha or Matcha —both in taste and effect. The tea is pleasantly mild , gentle on the stomach, and almost caffeine-free —ideal for relaxing moments of enjoyment, day and night.
In Japan, hojicha is a part of everyday life: It is traditionally drunk hot or cold , served in restaurants, or prepared at home. Our hojicha is certified organic in Japan and is an excellent choice for those who appreciate natural, aromatic, and wholesome tea.
