Hojicha Powder

Hojicha Powder

Hojicha Powder is finely milled roasted Japanese green tea, allowing you to enjoy the whole leaf simply by whisking the powder directly into water. Unlike traditional loose-leaf hojicha, nothing is discarded, making it an easy and convenient way to prepare the tea while consuming the entire leaf.

This version is produced in Shimada, Shizuoka Prefecture, from tea grown without the use of pesticides or synthetic fertilisers. The roasting process transforms the fresh, grassy character of green tea into something warm, mellow and aromatic, while naturally reducing its caffeine content. The result is a deep, rich powder with notes of toast, damp wood and gentle earthiness.

Beyond drinking as a traditional tea, its finely milled form makes it ideal for lattes, desserts, ice cream, cakes, cookies and other culinary applications where its rich roasted flavour can shine.
