Frequently Asked Questions

We answer everything you want to know about Hojicha Powder.

What is Hojicha powder?

Hojicha powder is a finely milled, roasted Japanese green tea. Unlike traditional matcha, the leaves are roasted at high temperatures, giving the powder a distinct reddish-brown color and a warm, nutty, and caramel-like flavor profile.

Does Hojicha powder contain caffeine?

Yes, Hojicha powder contains caffeine, but significantly less than matcha or coffee. The roasting process reduces the caffeine content, making it a gentle, soothing choice for those who prefer a milder energy boost, even in the evening.

How do I make a Hojicha latte at home?

To make a Hojicha latte, sift 1-2 teaspoons of Hojicha powder into a bowl, whisk with a small amount of hot water until smooth, and then pour over your favorite steamed dairy or plant-based milk. You can add honey or maple syrup to enhance the roasted notes.

Is Hojicha powder the same as matcha?

While both are Japanese green tea powders, they are different. Matcha is made from shade-grown, unroasted leaves and is vibrant green with a grassy, umami flavor. Hojicha is roasted, resulting in a brown color and a toasty, nutty, and sweet flavor.

What are the health benefits of Hojicha powder?

Hojicha powder is rich in antioxidants like catechins and polyphenols, which support metabolism and heart health. It also contains L-theanine, an amino acid known for promoting relaxation and mental clarity, making it a healthy and calming beverage option.
