Houjicha
Houjicha or Hōjicha is a type of Japanese green tea. Unlike other Japanese green teas, Hōjicha goes through a roasting process. This process gives the Hōjicha a smooth and mellow roasted flavour. Hōjicha is particularly low in caffeine and is a popular tea served during/after meals.

How to place an order?
First Infusion: Add 1 gram of tea per 100 ml of fresh water, or about one tablespoon per teapot. Heat the water to 80°C (176°F) and brew for one minute.
Second Infusion: Brew with the same water temperature 80°C (176°F) but infuse for only a few seconds.
Note that the caffeine content of green tea becomes significantly less after the first steeping. It is recommend that you experiment with your own techniques to find your most desired taste profile.
