Charcoal-Roasted Hojicha Loose Leaf Green Tea

Order via Japan Rabbit

Experience a comforting tea break with this light-roasted, charcoal-fired hojicha loose leaf green tea from Uji Hinodeen in Kyoto. Crafted from a blend of domestic Japanese sencha and kukicha stem tea, the leaves are slowly light-roasted to draw out a sweet, mellow aroma and a gentle flavor that warms you from the inside out.

Hojicha is a cherished style of Japanese green tea made by roasting the leaves, giving it a warm flavor profile and low caffeine content. You can brew it easily with boiling water, making it simple to enjoy alongside daily meals or traditional Japanese sweets. Thanks to its low caffeine level and soothing pyrazine compounds, a hot cup before bed can relax the body and help you unwind for a deep, peaceful sleep.

This brand new package contains 180 grams of loose leaf tea produced in Uji, Kyoto. It has a shelf life of 365 days from the manufacturing date. Store it away from high heat, humidity, and strong odors to preserve its delicate flavor.
