Ocha & Co. Organic Hojicha Powder - Roasted Green Tea Powder, 100g/3.5oz.

Great Hojicha , when whisking I got an impressive microfoam. I had it as a latte and it was very well balanced. Perfect afternoon drink that’s low in caffeine!

Love the taste of this.

I haven't tried many hojicha brands yet, but this one is a solid choice. The flavor is smooth and well-balanced, with a hinted roasted aroma that's not too overpowering. I found that cold-whisking it seems to bring out more of its earthy, nutty notes, making it taste richer. It also mixes well without too many clumps.

To be honest, I prefer actual tea/tea bag to the powder. The reason I order the powder was to make 保持茶　latte。maybe because I don’t have the same machine as the cafe does, it doesn’t come out as expected. Just to have a hot tea, this one doesn’t suffice. I’d rather drink 保持茶　by Cha no waza, Shizuoka.But it is good to make hojicha ice cream.

Really enjoying this. Tastes just like my local coffee shop's hojicha lattes, I wouldn't be surprised if it's the same thing they use...

Before I bought this brand, I reviewed the AprikaLife Hojicha as the best I could find. It was good, but this is much better. I find the taste to be stronger and more caramel-y than the AprikaLife brand.There are mixed reviews on this product, because people seem to not like the taste of Hojicha, which is subjective. Sometimes, I prefer the taste of this to matcha which can be more earthy and grassier.If I had to describe the taste of Hojicha, I would say that it tastes more caramel-like with roasted tones, similar to Thai tea. It doesn’t have the strong grassy notes of Matcha.I use this powder to make a latte every morning. I add 1 ½ tsp of Hojicha powder to whole milk and whisk it on the stove while heating it up, then I add monk fruit sweetener as desired. The mixability is much better than matcha, I find that the powder dissolves very easily, no clumps and barely needs to be whisked.Another reason to consume Hojicha over matcha is that it has an even lower caffeine content, with 5-10g of caffeine per serving as opposed to matcha which is 30-45g of caffeine per serving. I am sensitive to caffeine so I feel like I don’t need to worry with Hojicha since the caffeine content is so low.

I tried this product for the first time today on 12/31, I don't have much experience with Hojicha but i find this brand very nutty, chocolatey and gives a smooth mouth feel. I used about 30ml of cold water and 40mls of hot water for 2 scoops (with my bamboo spoon) of hojicha and whisked it my chasen as I would with regular matcha. It froths very nicely and looks very rich. I then added it to a cup of frothed oat milk and 3 tablespoons of maple syrup (I think with 2 would've been even more perfect so it wouldn't been too sweet but still came out tasty) and really liked the outcome. I'll definitely be adding this to my drinks routine.

very powdery taste even though it whisks well. however, every time I make it it gives me a stomachache…

I’m a big fan of hojicha powder when I don’t feel like having matcha. It can taste a bit powdery, but that’s just the nature of the drink. I follow the instructions on the package and always end up with a delicious drink, whether hot or cold. Very good quality and amount for the price.

Sono soddisfatta del prodotto, il sapore tostato ricorda un mix di cioccolato, nocciole, e caffè. Consiglio di prepararlo anche con del latte vegetale, ricordando che ogni latte vegetale ha un sapore un po’ diverso e il risultato può variare.

Schmeckt super als iced latte. Inhalt sollte trotzdem in ein anderes luftdichts Behältnis gefüllt werden um die Qualität beizubehalten.

Ich kaufe ständig Tee von Ocha & Co. Vielen Dank an den Verkäufer.

Very nice earthy, roasted flavours. Lovely in a latte. The packaging keeps the hojicha powder fresh but also easy to store. Really happy with my purchase.
