Roasted green tea blended with roasted brown rice from Shiga Prefecture, Japan
A mellow, warming, and relaxing tea blend using 40% organic roasted brown rice and 60% hōjicha tea leaves.
The hōjicha is a blend of first flush leaves, stems, and leaves that remained on the tea bush from the previous year. The tea is roasted twice, first in an oven, and then a second time with sand. Sand helps distribute the heat evenly, which makes the flavor steady and balanced.
This tea is very tolerant. If you steep it with less water, the flavor will turn a little denser, with more water a little gentler but it never becomes bitter regardless of how it's brewed.
Thanks to the deep roasting, hōjicha is low in caffeine and gentle to the stomach which makes this blend an ideal choice for the elderly and children as well.
