WHAT IS HOJICHA?

Hojicha (焙じ茶) is a Japanese green tea that is roasted over high heat — traditionally over charcoal — after the initial harvest. Unlike matcha or sencha, the roasting process turns the leaves from green to a rich reddish-brown and dramatically reduces caffeine while creating warm, toasty flavor compounds. Hojicha powder takes this one step further: the roasted leaves and stems are stone-milled into a fine powder, giving you all the depth of hojicha in a versatile, easy-to-use format. It's the perfect tea for anyone who loves matcha but wants something warmer, less grassy, and more forgiving.

HOJICHA POWDER VS MATCHA — WHAT'S THE DIFFERENCE? — Hojicha powder: roasted, warm, toasty, caramel notes, very low caffeine, reddish-brown color — Matcha: steamed, grassy, vegetal, high caffeine, bright green color Both are powdered Japanese green teas — but hojicha is the cozy, low-caffeine alternative to matcha's intensity.
