Buy NowMade during the last few weeks of the tea harvest, Houjicha is a popular Japanese roasted green tea. While Houjicha is somewhat darker in color, it remains in the green tea category due to the leaves being unoxidized. To produce Houjicha, the large, pale green tea leaves (known as ‘Bancha’) are steamed, dried, and then roasted in small batch ovens. A high-grade Houjicha like this one will require a skilled teamaker to carry out the production process with precise oven temperatures and roasting times. The amount of roasting ultimately reduces the amount of caffeine in this tea, making Houjicha an ideal evening-time and after-meal beverage.
