What is Hojicha?
Hojicha is a Japanese green tea that, unlike traditional green teas, is roasted at a high temperature. This gives the tea its characteristic brown color and a unique, pleasantly mellow flavor profile.
Its flavor is not dominated by the classic grassy notes of green tea, but rather by roasted, nutty, slightly caramel-like, and warm aromas.
What makes it special?
Because of the roasting process, Hojicha has a milder and less bitter character than many traditional green teas. It has a lower caffeine content, so it can be enjoyed later in the day.
It pairs exceptionally well with chai, as Hojicha’s roasted, nutty character harmonizes beautifully with classic chai spices—namely cinnamon, ginger, cardamom, and cloves.
