## Features

- HOJICHA ROASTED GREEN TEA – A unique type of Japanese roasted green tea (Hojicha) crafted in Uji, Kyoto. This roasted green tea hojicha stands apart from other traditional green teas. By using time-honored roasting methods, we gently roast the tea leaves to remove bitterness. As a result, the hojicha develops a pleasant, earthy, toasty aroma and a beautiful reddish-brown hue. This transformation turns ordinary green tea into roasted green tea, famously known as hojicha tea, houjicha tea, or hoji tea.
- ORGANIC GREEN TEA – Made from organic sencha green tea certified by JONA and JAS. We meticulously select only the finest organic Japanese sencha green tea from Uji, Kyoto, Japan. We proudly collaborate with local tea masters and a historic tea plantation that has been carefully preserved by passionate farmers for over 350 years, dating back to the Genroku era.
- ORIGINS OF HOJICHA TEA – In the Meiji period, a tea merchant began experimenting to make use of leftover parts of the tea plant. By roasting the leaves, stems, and twigs over charcoal, hojicha loose-leaf tea was born. The pleasant smoky aroma and smooth, mild flavor quickly gained popularity, making hojicha a favorite among tea drinkers in Japan. This historical technique created the distinctive roasted green tea hojicha we enjoy today.
- TRADITIONAL ROASTING METHOD – To make hojicha loose leaf, we have blended tea from sencha, bancha, and kukicha cultivars. These tea leaves are roasted over high heat using traditional methods to highlight the signature scent and flavor of roasted tea hojicha. The loose-leaf tea format delivers premium freshness and quality. With its low caffeine content, hoji cha is ideal for drinking after meals or in the evening, and can be safely enjoyed by babies, children, and pregnant women.
- HOT BREW & COLD BREW – Experience the versatility of hojicha tea loose leaf with two classic brewing methods. Hot brewing preserves the beneficial properties of the tea leaves while offering a comforting, invigorating drink. For warm weather, cold brewing—known as mizudashi hojicha—brings out a remarkably smooth flavor, making hojicha loose leaf tea a refreshing and cooling beverage during summer. Experience authentic, organic hojicha roasted green tea.
- This spring, enjoy premium Japanese specialty foods and teas from Yamasan Kyoto Uji—perfect as gifts for others, a self-indulgent treat, or for creating a festive springtime feast to share with family and friends.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Does this have leaves or is it a powder? Since matcha is normally a powder and kukicha twigs.**
A: Thank you for interesting our product. This product is tea leaves but with some matcha powder inside.

**Q: If I purchase this, will I get barley tea or green tea?  The photos are for barley tea but the reviews are for green tea.**
A: They put all reviews for the same company together. Under the review title you can see which product the review refers to. I have purchased Sencha and Hojicha from them and I got Sencha and Hojicha as described, not green tea. If you order this one you'll get this one. :)

**Q: Is this basically black tea?**
A: Thank you for your inquiry.  Hojicha is a kind of Japanese green tea. Hojicha is roasted after the leaves are steamed. Along with removing all bitterness, the roasting process gives hojicha its reddish-brown color and a unique smoky taste. We also have organic black tea in our store. You can check it too.

**Q: Is this barley tea gluten free?**
A: No. barley is not a gluten free grain.
