After years of matcha taking center stage, another specialty from Japan is now capturing the attention of tea lovers: Hojicha.
Still little known in Europe, this roasted green tea offers a very different experience from traditional green teas.
A unique aromatic signature
Hojicha is made by roasting green tea leaves at high temperatures. This process completely transforms its character: the liquor becomes amber and develops warm notes of hazelnut and caramel.
A lighter natural tea
Roasting naturally reduces the tea's caffeine content. This is why Hojicha is often enjoyed at the end of the day or after a meal, when you want a pleasant but milder drink.
A new discovery at Chill Tea Atelier
At Chill Tea Atelier, we love introducing authentic teas from their original traditions. With the arrival of spring, we wanted to highlight this still little-known Japanese specialty.
Hojicha invites you to rediscover green tea from a new perspective: richer, more comforting, and perfect for moments of relaxation.
