Organic Houjicha is a traditional Japanese tea made by roasting green tea leaves over charcoal until they turn brown. This process gives the tea a unique, toasty flavor and a reddish-brown color. It has a lower caffeine content than other green teas, making it a great option for those who are sensitive to caffeine or looking for a more calming tea experience. The tea is also believed to have health benefits, including aiding digestion and reducing stress levels.

Flavor

A smooth, smokey green tea with a cozy flavor.

Instructions

Chloe ★★★★★

The roasted, charcoal-fired flavor is so comforting — exactly what I hoped for in a houjicha. The reddish-brown color in the cup is lovely, and it's become my go-to evening tea.

Julian L. ★★★★★

I was surprised by how smooth and warm the toasty flavor is—no bitterness at all. The reddish-brown color after brewing makes it feel like a cozy treat any time of day.

Elizabeth ★★★★★

The charcoal roasting really comes through — it smells like toasted rice the second you open the bag. I've been brewing it in the evenings because there's barely any bitterness, even when I forget and let it steep too long.
