Unlike other Japanese green teas, hojicha undergoes a special roasting process that transforms both its flavour and character. By gently roasting the tea leaves, bitterness is reduced, caffeine levels are lowered, and a completely new taste profile emerges: smooth, nutty, and naturally sweet.
This roasting not only changes the flavour but also creates a comforting aroma, often compared to warm cocoa or lightly toasted nuts. The result is a tea that feels grounding and soothing, making it a perfect choice for moments of relaxation.
While most green teas are celebrated for their freshness, hojicha stands out as an aromatic, mellow tea that speaks to warmth and comfort. Its gentle body makes it a versatile choice, whether enjoyed plain, as a latte, or even alongside dessert.
