Details
Hojicha is made by roasting green tea leaves over high heat, transforming the flavour into something warm, toasty, and distinctly earthy — quite unlike the fresh, grassy notes of sencha. The roasting process also reduces caffeine content, making it a naturally gentle option for evenings or those who prefer a lower caffeine tea. Yamamotoyama, founded in Nihonbashi (Tokyo, Japan) in 1690, brings this classic Japanese tea to a convenient 16-bag format. At 31g, the pack is more compact than the other varieties in the range, reflecting the lighter character of the tea itself.
