What is Hojicha tea?
Hojicha is a type of Japanese green tea made by roasting tea leaves and stems at high temperature. This roasting process gives hojicha its signature toasty aroma, mellow flavour, reddish-brown colour, and lower caffeine profile compared to many regular green teas. If you are looking for a smooth roasted green tea that feels light, calming, and easy to drink, hojicha is a beautiful choice.
Originating in Japan over a century ago, Hojicha is loved for its warm, roasted character and gentle taste. Unlike grassy green teas, our Hojicha Tea offers an earthy, smoky, and nutty flavour profile that makes every sip soothing and comforting.
Our Hojicha tea from Kagoshima Prefecture is cultivated and produced using traditional Japanese tea-making methods. The carefully selected tea leaves and naturally sweet stems are roasted to create a balanced cup with a mellow aroma, smooth finish, and authentic Japanese roasted green tea experience.
Whether you enjoy it hot, iced, or as a hojicha latte, ILEM JAPAN Hojicha is a relaxing tea for everyday wellness. It is ideal for people who want a lower-caffeine Japanese tea with a rich roasted flavour.
Hojicha Tea Ingredients
Authentic hojicha tea gets its unique taste, aroma, and wellness properties from three key elements:
-
Thick Japanese green tea leaves rich in catechins, selected carefully for roasting
-
Traditional high-temperature roasting that creates its smooth, nutty, and smoky flavour
-
A single-cover shading technique that blocks nearly 80% of sunlight before harvest
These traditional methods ensure that every sip of our roasted green tea delivers smoothness, aroma, and comfort from leaf to cup.
