Oyatoko is the raw material of hojicha, which is harvested together with the leaves (parents) that are full of nutrients from the previous year and the new shoots (children) that have grown from them. Please enjoy the scent and taste of hojicha.

The have a soft and round taste, and the roasting adds a nutty taste.

Hojicha is a very popular food tea in Japan, as it is both sweet and mouth-watering. It's a really nice autumn tea to cozy up to.

Horii Shichimeien, founded in 1879, still manage the 600-year-old Okunuoyama Tea Garden in Uji, Kyoto. This garden is the only survivor of 7 historic tea gardens in Kyoto.

Advanced brewing tip: Hojicha is a roasted green tea that can consist of: only stems, only leaf or a combination of stems and leaves. If the Hojicha is just stems then the cold brew extraction will be weak so we recommend adding 1/4 of the jug with hot water for 45-60 seconds before filling the rest with cold water and letting it infuse as usual.
