How it's made

Roasted, naturally low in caffeine

Unlike our matcha, hojicha isn't decaffeinated. It doesn't need to be. Slow-roasting Japanese tea leaves at high heat naturally breaks down most of the caffeine, so hojicha is naturally low in caffeine straight from the roast. Just roasted tea leaves, no chemicals and no decaf process.

Hojicha is naturally low in caffeine, roughly 7-15 mg per cup versus 95-200 mg in a cup of coffee. It's regular roasted hojicha, not decaffeinated.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is your hojicha decaffeinated?
No. Our hojicha is regular roasted hojicha, and it's naturally low in caffeine. The high-heat roasting process naturally breaks down most of the caffeine, so there's no decaffeination step and no chemicals involved.
Typically 7-15 mg per cup. For comparison, a cup of decaf coffee has around 2-7 mg and regular coffee has 95-200 mg. Hojicha is naturally one of the lowest-caffeine true teas you can drink.
Yes. Roasting preserves hojicha's natural polyphenols and creates aromatic pyrazines. These compounds support antioxidant activity and contribute to its distinctive nutty flavor.
At roughly 7-15 mg of caffeine per cup, hojicha falls well within the 200 mg daily limit recommended by ACOG for pregnant women. As always, check with your healthcare provider before making any changes during pregnancy.
Warm, toasty, nutty and caramel-smooth. Slow-roasting Japanese bancha leaves gives hojicha its signature amber color and cozy roasted flavor, without the grassy bitterness of green tea.
They're two completely different drinks. Matcha is shade-grown green tea, whisked into a frothy bright-green drink. Hojicha is roasted green tea, brewed into a warm amber-brown cup with a smooth, nutty, caramel flavor. Hojicha is naturally lower in caffeine thanks to the roasting.
Whisk 1-2 grams (about ½ teaspoon) into 6-8 oz of hot water (175°F / 80°C). For a latte, add steamed milk of your choice. It's also delicious iced.
