Hojicha is a traditional Japanese roasted green tea known for its warm, comforting character and low caffeine content. Unlike most green teas, Hojicha is gently roasted, giving it a rich, toasty aroma and a smooth, full-bodied flavor. Notes of cinnamon-like spice and subtle sweetness emerge from the roasting process, creating a uniquely mellow and satisfying cup. Its golden-brown infusion and soothing taste make it perfect for evening sipping or pairing with meals. A tea that’s both grounding and gentle — Hojicha is a quiet celebration of simplicity and depth. Ingredients: green tea Steep time: 2-3 minutes
