What is hōjicha?

Hōjicha (ho-jee-cha) is a Japanese green tea, toasted over charcoal until the leaves turn amber and honeyed. We grind ours to a powder and soften it with Madagascan vanilla — so you whisk it like matcha and skip the brewing entirely.

From leaf to powder

Toasted over charcoal, ground fine, softened with Madagascan vanilla for a subtle sweetness.

Naturally low caffeine

Gentler than coffee. The toasting lowers caffeine, so the lift stays calm — never wired.

Smoother than matcha

No bitterness, no grit. Creamy and rounded, with the depth of a slow afternoon.

Whisked, not brewed

Spoon, whisk, pour over milk. Ninety seconds — no steeping, no timers.

Made in 90 seconds
