Signature Hojicha 焙茶 (30 g)

PRODUCT DETAILS

Most teas are harvested young and kept that way. Hojicha takes a different path — first harvest leaves, slow-roasted over high heat until they transform into something entirely their own. The chlorophyll fades. The bitterness disappears. What remains is warm, nutty, and quietly sweet — with a deep caramel finish that feels like it was made for slow mornings and late evenings alike.

This is not the bitter, astringent roasted tea you've had before. teasis sources from the same first harvest that produces our ceremonial matcha — then slow-roasts it to ceremonial standards. The result is a powder fine enough to whisk straight into hot water for a clean, satisfying bowl, or bold enough to cut through milk for a latte that holds its flavour all the way to the bottom.

Every sip is warm and smooth. Naturally mellow. Zero bitterness. Deeply comforting.
