Description: 1Lb/bag. Harney & Sons Hojicha Loose Leaf Green Tea is a distinctive Japanese roasted green tea made from twigs and leaves sourced from premium tea gardens in Uji. Its warm, nutty aroma and smooth, slightly sweet flavor resemble coffee but with far less bitterness and significantly reduced caffeine content. Unlike traditional green teas such as sencha or matcha, which are steamed to preserve their vegetal notes, hojicha is roasted, giving it a rich brown hue and a toasty character that makes it easier on the stomach and perfect for evening enjoyment. Nutritionally, hojicha is low in calories and contains antioxidants typical of green teas, though in slightly lower concentrations due to the roasting process. To prepare, steep one teaspoon of loose leaf hojicha in water heated to about 175°F for 1-3 minutes, then strain and enjoy. This 1-pound bag offers a generous supply for daily tea rituals, delivering a comforting and earthy alternative to more grassy or astringent green teas.
