Back in the 1920s, a tea merchant in Kyoto invented
Hojicha by roasting Bancha green tea to produce this wonderful, toasty
and smooth tasting tea! Because the roasting process destroys most of
the caffeine, Hojicha roasted tea can be enjoyed in the evening and
not keep you awake. Good with meals. (Note: This tea
is sold in a 2 oz size due to the large size of the
tea leaf.)
