Tea with Tae Hojicha 5ct. Pouch Green Tea

Tea with Tae's Hojicha is a roasted Japanese green tea that stands apart from traditional steamed varieties. Unlike sencha or gyokuro, this blend undergoes a unique roasting process in a porcelain pot over charcoal, creating its signature golden-brown leaves and smooth, naturally sweet flavor profile with minimal bitterness.

Each 5-count pouch contains pyramid sachets made from 100% biodegradable sugarcane material. The design allows whole leaves to fully unfurl during steeping, delivering maximum flavor in every cup. With light caffeine content (roughly equivalent to 1 cup of coffee across 3-4 cups of tea), this blend works beautifully any time of day—morning, afternoon, or evening.

Perfect for:

• Discovering a new Japanese tea without committing to a full-size package
• Travel and on-the-go enjoyment (TSA-friendly for carry-on luggage)
• Gift-giving and stocking stuffers with premium appeal

The resealable pouch keeps leaves fresh between brews. For added depth, pair this tea with cinnamon, honey, or enjoy it straight for a clean, toasted character.
