Our Kirishima Hojicha Kukicha captures the essence of this Japanese landscape in every sip.
Roasted to perfection, this unique tea (crafted with tender young twigs, rather than leaves) unveils a warm, toasty flavour with subtle hints of roasted barley and brown sugar.
The low level of caffeine makes this brew perfect for any time of day.
We love it for a stormy night.
Origin
This tea was grown organically and handcrafted on the Island of Kyushu, in Japan. It grew amid cedar trees, on soils fertilized by the volcano Sakurajima, one of the most active in Japan. It is easily one of the most gentle, comforting teas we’ve experienced in this region.
