These teabags brew a light-body tea with a fragrant roasted character. Made from roasted mecha (shoots and buds) and konacha (flakes), this hojicha is packaged in a wide pyramid-shape sachet. Choose this teabag for a simple and authentic daily cup of aromatic hojicha.

When you drink hojicha for the first time, you might be surprised that it is a type of Japanese green tea, given its amber color. When brewed, this roasted bancha releases an amazingly rich aroma that completely fills the room. The flavor is light-bodied, without much astringency.

Hojicha can be enjoyed in the evening as well as in the morning or afternoon. It tastes great on its own, with sweets, or accompanying a meal. Flavorful and refreshing, this tea is an absolute favorite among Ippodo patrons.

Ways to Prepare

  • Add one hojicha teabag to a cup, pour on boiling water, and wait for 1 minute.
  • Move the teabag around in the hot water until the tea has reached the desired strength, and you're done.
