rocky's matcha Houjicha 20g
Description
rocky's matcha is thrilled to offer our signature blend of houjicha from award winning, fifth generation tea farmer, Mr. Kiyoharu Tsuji.
Houjicha—directly translated in Japanese to ‘roasted tea’—is a type of green tea recognized for its smoky, nutty flavor profile and light-to-dark brown appearance. Both unique qualities are the result of a similarly distinctive preparation process: Tea leaves and twigs are slow-roasted in a porcelain pot over a charcoal flame before being ground into powder. The roasting process gives houjicha its signature aroma and appearance, while reducing its caffeine content, making it a mild alternative to other green teas.
Our signature houjicha uses stems and leaves from Tsujiki's tencha and is slow roasted at a relatively low temperature to preserve the flavor and taste of the tea.

I love this Houjicha for the days when I wake up naturally with enough energy and don't require as much caffeine. It's a fun alternative to traditional matcha with an interesting flavor that I thoroughly enjoy. Variety is the spice of life, and this is a variety that I can get on board with!

- EHErin H.Verified BuyerRated 5 out of 5 stars1 month agoGreat low-caffeine alternative to regular matcha
This is definitely a different flavor than the traditional green matcha, but I do love it, and it's especially great when i want to have a latte later in the evening, but don't want the caffeine, or when I've already had 2 matcha lattes but don't want the caffeine of the third. It's very autumnal tasting, I really do like it!
