Houjicha
This tea is one of our Pure Green selections. Check out the entire delicious collection here!
A very distinct and delicious variety of green tea from Japan, Houjicha is made by toasting the stems and twigs of the tea plant. This tea tastes like a journey into the woods and is good for sipping if you need something toasty on your adventures. It's also very low on caffeine so you won't be quite as anxious walking down the road less traveled.
Ingredients: Roasted green tea
Approximately 3mg of caffeine per cup
Steep at 185° F or 85°C for 3-5 minutes

Houjicha is a staple that I always keep in my cupboard. I find its mild, toasty flavor is a pleasant way to end the day. Personally, I don't brew a cup for more than 2 minutes, but that's me.
