What Is Hojicha?
Hojicha is Japanese green tea that has been roasted, giving it a warm amber-brown color, a smooth toasted aroma, and a naturally nutty flavor. Unlike matcha, which tastes bright and grassy, hojicha is roasted and mellow with notes often described as caramel, cocoa, chestnut, and toasted nuts.
What Is Hojicha Powder?
Hojicha powder is roasted green tea that has been fine-milled into a powder. It is ideal for lattes because it blends into milk and creates a creamy café-style drink without syrups or flavored mixes.
