- Hôji-cha - Japanese Roasted green tea

– Summer Harvest 2025 

The tea leaves harvested in summer are roasted at high temperatures on the Takeo family farm.
They develop a rich, toasted aroma and a gentle sweetness that soothes the heart.

For the Takeo family, making tea is above all about “listening to the voice of the tea”:
observing, touching, smelling, and tasting to reveal its full richness and delicacy.

In the cup, its roasted fragrance and warm flavor unfold slowly,
with a comforting touch of sweetness that invites relaxation.
Lower in caffeine, this hōjicha can be enjoyed at any time of the day,
offering the sincerity and flavors of the land from which it comes.
