Houji-Cha Roasted (Traditional Series)

Green Tea by Maeda-en

Our every-day Sen-cha, roasted to perfection! Maeda-en’s Traditional Houji-cha is a highly aromatic tea with robust, caramelized toasty flavor. It’s great as a palate cleanser, and is great for everyday drinking.

To brew, bring a pot of water to a boil. Steep 1 tbsp of leaves in 1 cup (8-12 oz) of hot water for about 30 seconds, and enjoy.

Nicely toasted, more robust than their usual green tea. Only thing is, if I’m drinking houji-cha, I find myself really wanting genmai-cha. That’s probably just me, though.
