Hojicha Pouch by Tea with Tae

Hojicha (ほうじ茶, also spelled "Hōujicha") is a roasted Japanese green tea.

Most Japanese green teas, like sencha and gyokuro, are steamed. Hojicha, however, is roasted in a porcelain pot over charcoal, producing the golden brown color of the leaves.

Hojicha has the lowest level of caffeine among green teas due to this unique roasting process. It's easy to drink and has little to no bitterness. As such, it can be enjoyed any time of day. If you want to sweeten your cup, try adding some cinnamon or honey (or both!).

"The smell immediately made me think of genmaicha but somehow warmer and smoother. Very earthy but not too bitter. I think I have a new favorite green tea! At least a close tie with jasmine." - Richelle, ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ review.

This tea blend is all-natural and does not use any artificial ingredients.

Caffeine Level

Light (3-4 cups of Hojicha = 1 cup of coffee)
