Details
The pleasant roasted flavor of Hojicha comes from gentle pan-roasting of the tea leaves, imbuing a light, smoky, yet subtly sweet complexion. The roasting process to produce Hojicha Tea results in reduced caffeine content and a total smoothness unlike that of other Japanese green teas. With very little bitterness, hojicha is often enjoyed before and after meals – even after dinner.

Yes!

I am new to this type of tea, but I’m looking for something that is extremely easy on my stomach and not loaded with caffeine. I’ve been a dedicated censor drinker for years and Matcha! So I’m toning it down with this tea and using the others on special occasions. I find this tea to be roasted and delicious and since it is darker it’s a little more like drinking black tea or coffee. It is a two thumbs up for me

Delicious low caffeine

This tea has a delicious toasted green tea flavor. I enjoy a couple of cups during the day and with low caffeine can drink it close to bedtime. I have the loose tea from another supplier but this bagged tea is surprisingly better.
