A jitter-free and natural source of caffeine

Rich in anti-oxidants and promotes calm

Hojicha is a roasted Japanese green tea known for its naturally low caffeine, warm toasted aroma, and smooth, earthy flavour. It’s the tea people in Japan turn to when they want deep comfort without the jitters - calming, cozy, and easy on the palate.

Hojicha is made by taking steamed green tea and slowly roasting them at high temperatures. This roasting process transforms the leaves from bright green to a rich chestnut brown, creating a nutty, caramel-like aroma and removing most of the caffeine. The result is a cup that’s round, mellow, and deeply soothing.

Mezame Hojicha is sourced from Kagoshima in Kyushu - Japan’s volcanic tea-growing region known for its nutrient-dense soils and clean flavour profiles. The leaves are roasted in small batches to ensure an even, balanced aroma with no bitterness. Smooth, warm, and aromatic, our Hojicha is the perfect evening tea or a grounding companion to your daily routine.
