What is hojicha?
Hojicha is a type of Japanese green tea that has a distinctive savory flavor due to the roasting of the tea leaves.
Compared to matcha, roasted tea contains less caffeine and has a relaxing effect.
Along with matcha, hojicha is popular in Japan, and cafe menus and sweets using hojicha are also popular.
Although not yet as famous as matcha, it is becoming a little better known overseas.

 

How to make cafe menus using hojicha?
For cafe menus using hojicha, simply change the amount of matcha you used to use to hojicha powder.

Our hojicha powder is available in two types, "Bitter" and "Rich".
Here are the features of each.

Advantages of using hojicha

・It is still less recognized than matcha, so it can offer a new taste to customers.

・The recipe is also easy, as all you have to do is change the matcha to hojicha as it is.

・Less caffeine than matcha or coffee. *Not caffeine-free.

・Like matcha, it also has health benefits from catechins.

・Pyrazines" created during the roasting process and theanine create a relaxing effect.

 If you are unsure about ordering for the first time, we recommend "Bitter"."Bitter" has a strong hojicha flavor, so you can enjoy a more hojicha-like taste.

    I recently was recommended hojicha and came across this one. Definitely recommend and it’s so good! It’s sweet, creamy, and nutty! If you don’t want to drink matcha at night, hojicha would be good because the caffeine is lower.

    It's comparable to the roasted, nutty flavor that oolong tea has. I definitely recommend it! I'm going to try the "bitter" flavor next. I think the "rich" was pretty mellow, even if you go heavy on the scoops.

    Both rich and bitter options are good, AND even thought rich option is only being recommended with milk, you can still make it with water and the flavor will be okay enough. I recommend getting the rich option and making milkshake/protein milkshake! Incredibly good

    It was a great product. The particles are incomparably finer than commercially available hojicha powder. The scent is also dozens of times more powerful. The taste is also condensed with hojicha and is the best to match with milk. I will repeat again! thank you very much!
