Den’s Hojicha Powder is made of finely ground whole leaf hojicha. Hojicha is a type of Japanese green tea that has been roasted, giving it its distinct brown color. We've noticed an interest in folks using hojicha as an ingredient for lattes, ice cream, and many other treats in Japan and the US.
Origin: Shizuoka, Kagoshima
Harvest: First & Second Harvests
Cultivar: Yabukita
Tasting Profile:
This powder has earthy, roasted flavor that is slightly buttery. Though it is milled as fine as matcha, the powder can feel a bit rough to the tongue and throat when taken by itself. However, it shines as an ingredient in beverages, confections, and savory dishes.
Den's Preferred Brewing:
Try using this powder as a replacement for matcha in your matcha recipes. You can treat the hojicha powder as you would matcha. We specifically recommend it in cold treats like iced hojicha lattes, tiramisu or ice cream.
