Description:
- Hojicha is a distinctive Japanese green tea renowned for its unique roasting process and flavor profile. At Happa we are proud to offer a top-quality Hojicha made from the roasting technique that has been refined in Japan over many generations. The roasting process involves heating the leaves at high temperatures, imparting a reddish-brown color to the tea and altering its taste and aroma.
- The roasting technique not only gives Hojicha its characteristic reddish-brown hue but also creates a mild, nutty, and caramel-like flavor with a pleasant, toasty aroma. This process also reduces the tea’s caffeine content, making Hojicha a suitable choice for those seeking a tea with lower caffeine levels.
- Hojicha is appreciated for its smooth taste and gentle nature, making it an excellent option for individuals sensitive to the astringency or bitterness often associated with other green teas. Enjoy our Hojicha as a comforting and soothing beverage, after meals or in the evening as you are winding down due to its calming qualities.
- Its versatility allows you to enjoy our Hojicha hot or cold and even as an ingredient in various culinary creations, including desserts and savory dishes. Its growing popularity domestically in Japan and internationally stems from its unique roasted flavor profile and its appeal to a wide range of tea enthusiasts seeking a soothing, flavorful tea experience.
