What is Hojicha?
If you love green tea but crave something deeper and more comforting, meet hojicha. Unlike traditional green teas that are steamed, hojicha tea is made by roasting green tea leaves at a high temperature. This process transforms the leaves into a deep reddish-brown color and significantly lowers the caffeine content, making it a perfect evening treat.
