{"product_id":"japan-dark-roast-hojicha","title":"Japan: Dark Roast Hojicha","description":"\u003cp\u003eDeep roasted hojicha with rich, toasty warmth, smooth sweetness, and a comforting, low-caffeine finish.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis classic dark roast hojicha is crafted from roasted Japanese tea leaves and stems, producing a deeply aromatic and satisfying cup. The higher roasting temperature transforms the leaf, drawing out bold notes of caramel, roasted nuts, and gentle smokiness while softening any astringency. The result is a smooth, amber infusion with a rounded body and a clean, lingering finish.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCompared to lighter styles, this darker roast emphasizes depth and warmth—less green character, more roast-driven richness. Expect layers of toasted grain, burnt sugar, and subtle woodiness, balanced by a natural sweetness. The roasting process also significantly reduces caffeine and bitterness, making hojicha especially well-suited for evening drinking or a calming daily ritual.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eideal for evening tea, low-caffeine lifestyles, fans of roasted or coffee-like profiles, cozy daily drinking\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"mso-fareast-font-family: 'Times New Roman'; mso-fareast-theme-font: major-fareast;\"\u003eOrigin:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003cspan\u003eIbaraki\u003c\/span\u003e, Japan\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"mso-fareast-font-family: 'Times New Roman'; mso-fareast-theme-font: major-fareast;\"\u003eCultivar:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003cspan\u003eYabukita, Sayamakaori\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"mso-fareast-font-family: 'Times New Roman'; mso-fareast-theme-font: major-fareast;\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"mso-fareast-font-family: 'Times New Roman'; mso-fareast-theme-font: major-fareast;\"\u003eFlavor Profile: \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"mso-fareast-font-family: 'Times New Roman'; mso-fareast-theme-font: major-fareast;\"\u003eRoasted nuts, caramel, toasted grain, light smoke, warm wood, subtle sweetness, smooth finish finish\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePreparation: \u003c\/strong\u003e3-5 g tea, 95\u003cspan\u003e°C (200\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e°F), 25\u003c\/span\u003e0 ml (8 oz) water, 1-2 minutes\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor the best-tasting tea, use high-quality or filtered\/bottled water\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"My Store","offers":[{"title":"50 g","offer_id":47217838653618,"sku":null,"price":15.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"2 x 50 g (5% Off)","offer_id":47397382586546,"sku":null,"price":28.5,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"3 x 50 g (10% Off)","offer_id":47397382619314,"sku":null,"price":40.5,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"4 x 50 g (15% Off)","offer_id":47397382652082,"sku":null,"price":51.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0707\/1144\/3634\/files\/dark-roast-hojicha-leaves.png?v=1774642449","url":"https:\/\/bowerytea.com\/products\/japan-dark-roast-hojicha","provider":"Bowery Tea","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
