The first thing that will surprise you about this Japanese green tea is that it’s not actually green.
It’s also unusual in that it’s made of both the leaves and the stems of the tea plant.
But what makes this tea truly different is that after processing, it’s roasted, which turns the leaves and stem reddish brown and the liquor a beautiful golden-orange colour.
Using leaves from lower down the tea bush creates a lower caffeine tea.
And the roasting process releases Pyrazine, known for its ability to increase blood flow circulation.
Hojicha brings an immediate sense of calm and relaxation so it’s perfect for unwinding at the end of your day.
