{"product_id":"hojicha","title":"Hōjicha","description":"\u003cp\u003eHōjicha, also written hojicha, is a roasted Japanese green tea made by firing green tea leaves and stems over high heat until they turn a deep reddish brown. That roasting is what sets it apart from other Japanese green teas: it draws out a warm, toasty, naturally sweet flavour with caramel and nutty notes, and none of the grassy sharpness or bitterness people sometimes associate with green tea or matcha.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eRoasting also reduces the caffeine in the leaf, so hōjicha contains noticeably less caffeine than matcha, sencha or coffee. It is a popular choice in Japan for drinking in the evening, after a meal, or by anyone who wants the ritual of a good cup of tea without a late caffeine hit.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eTasting notes\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eWarm, toasty and naturally sweet, with a smooth, clean finish and a light reddish-brown liquor.
