With a aroma of freshly roasted coffee, Our Hojicha has a sweet, woodsy taste reminiscent of caramel. With a taste close to that of a dark oolong, Hojicha is fantastic for those who love roasty tasting foods.
And since it is made almost entirely from tea stalks, Hojicha is very low in caffeine. Fantastic hot or iced, Hojicha is a fantastic tea for a nightcap.
Ingredients: Roasted Bancha Tea Stalks •
Why it’s Special:
** Hojicha has a nutty taste and a finish of molasses and burnt sugar
** Made entirely of roasted tea stalks
** Intoxicating aroma of roasted coffee with notes of caramel
** Naturally decaffeinated
** The only Green Tea to have a nutty/roasted flavor on the front palate
What to be Careful of:
** This tea drinks like a hybrid of a Black Tea and Green Tea
** Little earthly tasting, like a light Pu-erh
** Has a light mouthfeel for a Japanese Green Tea
** While it has a roasted flavor, it is not at all smokey
** Not a good morning tea if you are looking for a caffeine kick
