Yamamasa Koyamaen Hojicha - Hojicha Powder 100g
Yamamasa Koyamaen Hojicha Powder 100g
Premium Roasted Japanese Green Tea Powder – Rich & Bitter Variants
Discover the depth of Japanese hojicha with Yamamasa Koyamaen’s 100g Hojicha Powder, crafted in Uji, Kyoto by a tea house with over 300 years of heritage. Using tencha leaves traditionally reserved for ceremonial matcha, this roasted green tea powder is made with precision and care—offering two unique flavour profiles to suit every application.
Variant Profiles
Rich Hojicha
Roasted at a lower temperature over a longer period, this blend is smooth and mellow with notes of roasted nuts, dark chocolate, and caramel. Perfect for those who enjoy a rounder, toasty finish without sharp bitterness. Ideal for premium hojicha lattes, ice creams, and pastries where aroma and depth matter.
Bitter Hojicha
Bolder and more assertive, this version is roasted at a higher temperature to bring out sharper, more intense smoky notes and a distinctly dry, bitter edge. It’s perfect for cutting through sweetness in dessert applications or adding a savoury complexity to sauces and baked goods.
Aroma & Texture
Both variants feature a finely stone-ground texture for easy blending and a deep, nutty aroma. Whether whisked into warm milk or folded into cake batter, the result is smooth, consistent, and deeply aromatic.
Perfect For
- Hojicha lattes (try Rich for mellow, Smoker for bold)
- Gelato, cookies, cakes, and puddings
- Blended drinks, smoothies, or vegan treats
- Evening tea rituals (low caffeine)
