Roasted green tea stems from Shiga, Japan
Asamiya Oyako Hōjicha is definitely a charisma. It is highly aromatic, steaming an edgy smokiness. The flavor is slightly sour, like fallen leaves after rainfall, with the notes of timber and black beans. Try this tea and enjoy the characteristically Japanese, nostalgic atmosphere it creates.
Asamiya Oyako Hōjicha was plucked in Asamiya, Shiga prefecture, and is a blend of first flush leaves, stems and leaves that remained on the tea bush from the previous year. This blend is roasted twice. First on its own in an oven, and then a second time with sand. After the roasting, the leaves are ventilated and sifted to remove all the sand. Sand helps distribute the heat evenly, which makes the flavor steady and balanced.
This hōjicha is very permissive. If you steep it with less water, the flavor will turn a little denser, with more water a little gentler, but either way, it will never get bitter.
Thanks to the deep roasting, hōjicha is low in caffeine and gentle to the stomach. It is ideal for the elderly and children as well.
