Overview
Tip: start at ~95°C, then adjust down 3–5°C if it turns sharp.
Pairing: sushi, steamed vegetables, or citrusy salads
This stemmed green tea from Japan boasts a light roasted flavor and aroma with a nutty smoothness. Because Hojicha is roasted, this green tea is low in caffeine and a great alternative to decaffeinated choices. Enjoy with a few drops of Sambuca and be transported to a herbal, floral experience like no other. Hojicha Tea brews for 2-3 minutes at 180 F. Use 1 level teaspoon of dry ingredients for a 6-ounce cup and re-steep the same ingredients up to 3 times without compromising flavor or quality. Ingredients: Hojicha tea Caffeinated, Green Tea, Tea, Roasted, Stems, Smooth, Nutty, Sweet, Bitter
