Houjicha has a sweet scent like honey and has little bitterness. The Houjicha tea leaves are produced in Kagoshima prefecture and have been carefully rolled and roasted by craftsmen
We do recommend drinking this after a meal or when you want to relax.
Hōjicha (焙じ茶, ほうじ茶) is a Japanese green tea. It is distinctive from other Japanese green teas because it is roasted in a porcelain pot over charcoal, whereas most Japanese teas are steamed. Hojicha is a more intensely roasted version of Sencha. The tea is fired at a high temperature, altering the leaf color tints from green to reddish-brown. The process was first performed in Kyoto, Japan, in the 1920s and its popularity persists today.
