Hojicha is green tea leaves and stems that had been roasted to create an earthy, nutty, and mildly sweet flavor. Hojicha is also very low in caffeine content which can be enjoyed throughout the day. We import our hojicha powder from the same farm we get our matcha powder in Uji, Japan. Give our hojicha latte a try if you haven't!
