Hojicha

Country of origin: Japan

Infusions: 2

Hojicha is a roasted Bancha, so does not look like a typical green tea. The leaves are bulky and brown, resulting in a light brown infusion. The taste and aroma are dominated by roast chestnut and cocoa.

Preparation guidelines: Use 12 g of tea (approx. 10 heaped tsp) for 1 litre of freshly boiled water. Allow to infuse for 30 seconds. Then strain. Suitable for 2 infusions.
