Hojicha Loose Leaf Tea | Roasted Japanese Green Tea | Sip Happens Roasters

The Japanese tea that tastes like a warm hug. Low caffeine, deeply comforting.
Hojicha is the tea for people who love the idea of green tea but want something warmer, nuttier, and less grassy. Unlike traditional green teas, Hojicha is roasted — a process that transforms the flavor profile entirely, replacing the sharp vegetal notes with deep, toasty warmth and a smooth, comforting character that's closer to a roasted grain than a typical tea. Our Hojicha is crafted from carefully selected tea leaves and stems, stone-milled into a fine powder that brews into a beautifully smooth cup with notes of toasted cereal and balanced umami. The roasting process also dramatically reduces the caffeine content, making it one of the best evening teas you can drink — all the ritual and warmth of a hot cup, without the sleep disruption. A standout for matcha lovers looking for something different, coffee drinkers exploring tea, and anyone who wants a genuinely cozy cup.
