Hōjicha is Japan's roasted tea — and it is the most misunderstood of the three teas we carry. While matcha gets the attention for its ceremonial heritage and L-theanine content, hōjicha offers something different: warmth, depth, low caffeine, and a flavour profile that is genuinely pleasant at any hour of the day.

What Is Hōjicha

Hōjicha (焙じ茶, sometimes romanised as hojicha) is Japanese green tea that has been roasted over charcoal at high heat. The roasting — typically at 200°C or above — transforms the tea in three fundamental ways:

  1. Colour shifts from green to reddish-brown. The chlorophyll breaks down completely.
  2. Caffeine is largely destroyed. High heat breaks the caffeine molecule, leaving 7–10mg per serving versus 60–70mg in matcha.
  3. Flavour compounds are created. Pyrazines and other roasting by-products produce the characteristic nutty, caramel, and earthy notes.

The result is a tea that resembles coffee more than it resembles green tea — in colour, in warmth, and in the roasted quality of its flavour — while remaining, botanically, the same plant as matcha.

How Hōjicha Is Made

The starting material is usually bancha (a second or third flush green tea) or sencha (standard shaded green tea). These lower grades are used precisely because the roasting process adds value — the expensive first-flush tencha used for ceremonial matcha would be wasted.

The roasting process:

The stone-milling stage works identically to matcha production — the difference is that the input material is brown and roasted rather than green and fresh.

Flavour Profile

Hōjicha powder has a flavour that most people find immediately approachable:

It is significantly less intense than matcha. Where a straight matcha has a pronounced grassy, umami character, hōjicha is gentle and warming — closer to a roasted grain drink than a green tea.

Caffeine Content

This is the defining practical difference. Per 2g serving:

Tea Caffeine
Hōjicha ~7–10 mg
Ceremonial Matcha ~68 mg
Coffee (espresso) ~63 mg
Coffee (drip) ~95 mg

The low caffeine content makes hōjicha suitable:

How to Brew Hōjicha

Straight (usucha style)

  1. Sift 2g of hōjicha powder into a bowl or cup
  2. Add 80ml of water at 80–90°C (boiling water left to cool for 2–3 minutes)
  3. Whisk briskly in a W motion until dissolved — a small balloon whisk or milk frother works fine
  4. Drink immediately

Hōjicha is more forgiving than matcha at this step — it does not clump as easily and does not require a traditional chasen (though you can use one).

Hōjicha Latte

The most popular preparation outside Japan.

  1. Sift 2g of hōjicha powder into a cup
  2. Add 40ml of hot water (80–90°C) and whisk to a smooth paste
  3. Steam 150ml of oat or dairy milk until hot and lightly foamy
  4. Pour the steamed milk over the hōjicha paste
  5. Optional: add a small amount of honey or maple syrup

Oat milk pairs exceptionally well — its natural sweetness complements the caramel notes without overpowering them.

Iced Hōjicha

  1. Whisk 2g with 40ml of hot water to a concentrate
  2. Pour over a glass filled with ice
  3. Add cold oat milk to fill — no steaming required
  4. Stir briefly

The iced version has a clean, refreshing character completely unlike iced matcha. Less vegetal, more like a light roasted grain drink.

Hōjicha in the Kitchen

The roasted flavour holds up exceptionally well at moderate baking temperatures. Common applications:

Hōjicha vs Matcha: Which to Choose

Both are valuable and they are not competitors — they serve different moments.

At Satsuki we include hōjicha in our range precisely because it fills a gap that matcha does not. The Tasting Set includes one tin of each — a natural starting point if you want to understand the contrast directly.
