Description

nakameguro's matcha is thrilled to be one of the only brands in the region offering true hojicha


Hojicha, directly translated from Japanese, means 'roasted tea', it's a type of green tea recognized for its smoky, nutty flavor profile and light-to-dark brown appearance. Both unique qualities are the result of it's distinctive preparation process: matcha tea leaves and twigs are slow-roasted in a porcelain pot over a charcoal flame before being ground into powder. The roasting process gives hojicha its signature aroma and appearance, while reducing its caffeine content, making it a mild alternative to other green teas.
Our signature hojicha uses stems and leaves from Kagoshima's tencha (the tea variety that produces matcha) and is slow-roasted at a relatively low temperature to preserve the flavor and taste of the tea.

nakameguro's cold whisked hojicha recipe

add 35g oat milk to the chawan and whisk vigorously until it foams well (approx 45-60 seconds)
add 100g of oatmilk

pour over ice and stir

oatmilk is the most recommended for this recipe as it pairs well with the roasted caramel-nutty notes of houjicha
