Product Description
Tsujiri Instant Hojicha is a roasted Japanese green tea in stick format created by Kataoka Bussan, a Japanese company specializing in premium tea products. The Tsujiri brand carries on the tradition of Uji tea mastery, a region renowned for its historic plantations. This instant hojicha contains 100 individual 0.8g sticks made from Japanese green tea leaves (origin: Japan) delicately roasted to develop their characteristic aromas. Each stick dissolves perfectly in hot or cold water thanks to its soluble formulation based on dextrin and green tea extract, allowing you to enjoy authentic tea in seconds without a teapot or steeping.
Hojicha stands out for its unique aromatic profile: careful roasting that develops deep toasted notes, smooth and round flavor without bitterness, characteristic amber color, and low caffeine content (roasting naturally reduces caffeine). This tea can be enjoyed hot (80-90°C recommended for 100ml water per stick) or cold, making it a versatile beverage suitable for all seasons. The individual stick format guarantees optimal freshness, precise dosing, and maximum practicality: ideal for the office, travel, or when time is short for traditional preparation. The 100-stick box allows for extended daily use or family sharing.
