The roasted Hojicha tea powder is made from roasted Japanese green tea, harvested in Shizuoka prefecture. Sencha and kukicha green tea leaves are steamed, roasted, and then milled to create this aromatic green tea powder that is naturally sweet and smooth. Great in lattes or when making desserts.

My girls and I finished the Hojicha matcha 100g within 1 week. It was so delicious. Will order more. Thank you.
The powder of roasted green tea is something I've only recently heard of. I bought this to try it and I was surprised by the smoky flavor. It almost tastes like coffee. I made cookies with this hojicha powder too and they were good. It also makes nice lattes.
Tastes a bit more earthy than chocolatey (which another vendor's resembled) - which I assume is a more accurate taste of hochija when I get it unsweetened at coffeeshops. I saw the note prior about brewing temps leading to bitterness so trying to be more mindful of that. All in all, a great value for the size.
Recommended powder, takes just like freshly brewed hojicha leaves and much simpler without leftover leaves (that can be re-used 1-2 times). Flavor earthy and deliciously grasses. Slight caffeine amounts.
I feel like hojicha powder is so hard to find, but this one is perfect for all of your baking and latte needs! If you have any doubts about purchasing, take this review as your green light to buy it!
