Hojicha - Sweet Aroma 20g

Amaka (Sweet Aroma) Hojicha is made from large leaves and stems that are separated during the production of Japanese oolong tea.

Japanese oolong tea is already produced in very small quantities, and the leaves selected for this hōjicha come from that limited harvest. Because of this, the raw material for Amaka Hojicha is particularly rare.

These larger leaves and stems retain the floral aroma developed during the withering process. By carefully roasting tea with strong floral notes, the withering fragrance and roasted aroma blend together, creating a gently sweet and aromatic hōjicha.
