Product Details

Our medium-roasted Kagoshima hojicha powder is crafted from carefully selected tea leaves, slow-roasted to draw out a deeply comforting warmth. The roasting process transforms the natural vegetal notes into something altogether more inviting — rich and nutty, with hints of caramel and a gently toasted sweetness that lingers.

Sourced from the sun-drenched fields of Kagoshima, where the volcanic soil and warm climate lend the leaves a natural depth and body, this hojicha is ultrafine and smooth — dissolving effortlessly into lattes, ice cream creations, and baked goods. Naturally low in caffeine, it is as welcome in the evening as it is in the morning.

Whether whisked into a creamy latte, swirled into a scoop of ice cream, or simply enjoyed on its own, it delivers a quiet, warming pleasure in every cup. Approachable, versatile, and deeply satisfying — the perfect companion for any time of day.

Kagoshima, Japan
鹿児島県

Kagoshima sits at the southernmost tip of Japan's main islands, where volcanic soils, abundant sunshine, and a warm subtropical climate create a uniquely powerful growing environment for tea. The mineral-rich earth — shaped by centuries of volcanic activity from the iconic Sakurajima — lends Kagoshima-grown leaves a naturally robust character, making them an ideal canvas for the roasting process that defines hojicha. Roasted to a deep, warm amber, Kagoshima hojicha develops its signature nutty, caramel notes with a smooth, low-caffeine finish — a reflection of both the land's richness and the craft of those who tend it.
