Japanese Hojicha | Single Origin Loose Leaf Roast Green Tea

Meet the tea that is being featured in tea lattes across cafes & coffee shops all over the US! Uproot's Single Origin Hojicha is made with handpicked tea leaves & stems, dry roasted over hot charcoal. Perfect for tea lattes. Hojicha was created in the 1920s when a tea merchant roasted leftover tea leaves, stems, stalks, and twigs in order to reduce waste. This proved to be popular, and hojicha today is its own commercial success. Uproot partners directly with small family farms to support regenerative agriculture. Moreover, it comes with the perfect brewing instructions to make sure your tea doesn’t go bitter or astringent.
