Description

A roasted green tea from Japan

While Japan is famous for its spring green teas rich in umami (the well-known sencha), it also produces very different green teas with a delicious toasted profile. Bancha Hojicha is one of them.

“Bancha” means that the tea comes from summer or autumn harvests, while “hojicha” translates as roasted tea: it is through roasting that this green tea takes on its brown colour and develops a very pleasant woody aroma.

Although hojicha is sometimes ground into powder, our organic Bancha Hojicha is infused as loose leaves and can be enjoyed both hot and iced.

This tea comes from organic farming and has been certified by an approved independent certification body.

Refreshing and low in caffeine

Bancha Hojicha is known for being refreshing and low in caffeine. This is easily explained: bancha teas often come from so-called equalising harvests, which contain fewer buds and include lower leaves, naturally lower in caffeine. This tea can be enjoyed hot or cold and is served on all occasions in Japan, including before meals.

A versatile and much-loved tea, making an excellent bridge into Japanese teas for lovers of Chinese teas!

A surprisingly addictive everyday ritual

"I didn’t expect to fall for a tea that looks like roasted twigs - but here we are. Bancha Hojicha has this warm, toasty aroma that immediately feels comforting, almost like a quiet evening wrapped in a cup. The flavor is smooth, low in bitterness, with gentle notes of roasted wood, nuts, and a subtle sweetness that lingers just enough to make you take another sip… and then another. What I love most is how easy it is to drink. No sharp edges, no heaviness -just a soft, grounding experience that works perfectly both in the morning and late in the evening (especially thanks to its low caffeine content). It’s not a “look at me” tea. It’s a “stay with me” tea. And somehow, that makes it even better."

איפה הוא היה כל חיי

"רכשתי די במקרה, וגיליתי עולם – באנצ'ה והוג'יצ'ה. חובבי הטעמים הדגיים ייהנו ממנו במיוחד. הקלייה מוסיפה רובד שלם של טעמים. תה שממלא מצברים ומרגיע. אם כבר מכינים, שווה לשים כמות גדולה, ולהוציא אותה בזמן מהמים. אגב בהתחלה התקשיתי להגות את השם, אבל התאמנתי קצת, ועכשיו זה מתגלגל."
