Kuki Hojicha
Kuki Hojicha is a roasted green tea made mostly of leaf stems or “kuki.” The flavor is rich, chocolatey with notes of coffee and smoky tobacco. The practice of roasting green tea stems originated in Kyoto 1oo years ago. No part of the plant goes wasted - mottainai
Kuki Hojicha contains less caffeine because it mostly consists of stems and is roasted over high heat. I really appreciate this distinct flavor and ofter drink in the afternoon and well into the evening.
Tasting notes: Round, smoky, nutty with hints of chocolate
Opinion: Great evening tea with family and friends. Happy Holidays!
