Roasted Green Tea (Hojicha) (Camellia sinensis)

• Japan (early 20th century) – Hojicha developed as a roasted green tea for everyday enjoyment

• Traditional Japanese tea culture – Consumed for its gentle nature and warming qualities

• Evening and family tea traditions – Favoured due to its naturally low caffeine content

• Traditional preparation methods – Green tea leaves roasted over charcoal and brewed into a comforting tea

Hojicha emerged as a softer, more approachable green tea, valued for its toasty flavour, warmth, and calm character. Unlike powdered teas, hojicha was traditionally enjoyed as a brewed tea, often in the afternoon or evening, forming part of daily Japanese life and hospitality.

Hojicha is a roasted green tea known for its naturally low caffeine content and smooth, nutty flavour. The roasting process reduces bitterness and caffeine while enhancing warmth and depth, making hojicha a popular choice for those seeking a gentler tea experience.

Commonly associated modern-day benefits of hojicha include:

• Supporting calm, gentle energy

• Offering a low-caffeine alternative to coffee and green tea

• Supporting evening or late-day rituals

• Providing antioxidant support

• Encouraging digestive comfort

• Complementing relaxing, mindful routines

Hojicha is widely enjoyed for its comforting taste and suitability at almost any time of day, particularly when stimulation is not desired.
