Hojicha (or: Houjicha) is a roasted green tea. The name is composed of the word 'hojiru' for 'toast' and the 'cha' for 'tea'. With a Horoku tea roaster you can even roast your own hojicha from your favourite green tea. KEIKO Hojicha is made from Kabusecha of the 1st and 2nd picking. Hojicha is probably the only green tea that has the right to have a red-brown cup colour. What otherwise indicates a lack of quality is in this case desired. Hochija is a great companion in both the cold and warm seasons. With its warm, mild and nut-like roasting aromas, a hot Hojicha is just right to warm up after a long winter walk. In Japan, Hojicha is often drunk with the whole family at dinner. But it is also great in the summer as a cold refreshment when you are out and about, doing sports or just to accompany your meals.
Storage
In order to preserve the precious flavours and ingredients of the tea as best as possible, we recommend to seal the bag well and store it cool and dark - ideally in your refrigerator or freezer.

Mein Haustee
In Japan kennengelernt. Man kann ihn von morgens bis abends und auch zu Mahlzeiten wunderbar trinken. Von Keiko ist er am besten =)!
Super lecker
Kräftig,weich und geröstetes aroma, löscht durst & schmeckt super lecker.
Grüntee mit intensiven Röstgeschmack
Der Houjicha schmeckt rauchig und nussig und erinnert mich an den Geschmack von Genmaicha. Die beiden Tees schmecken bestimmt gut zu Nussecken. Mir schmeckt der Tee sehr gut obwohl der Genmaicha mir noch etwas besser schmeckt.
