{"product_id":"hojicha-ko-uji","title":"Kō, Hojicha from Uji","description":"\u003cp\u003eKō (香) means \"fragrance\" or \"aroma\" in Japanese. This roasted tea from Wazuka in Uji, Kyoto carries the scent of hazelnuts and caramel. Warm, comforting, irresistible.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eWhen matcha is too much.\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHōjicha is what happens when Japanese tea masters decide that not every moment needs to be awake. They take sencha or bancha, roast it over charcoal at high heat and turn it into something completely different.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eKō comes from Wazuka, Uji, and uses three cultivars: Okumidori, Samidori, Yabukita. The roast develops aromas of roasted hazelnuts and deep caramel. Warm and comforting, with a sweetness that comes not from sugar but from the Maillard reaction of the leaves themselves.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe best part? Much less caffeine than matcha. What remains is pure comfort. For evenings, for moments when you want warmth without the buzz, or when you simply want something good to drink without consequences.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eA tea that embraces.\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eAt a glance\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eType:\u003c\/strong\u003e Hōjicha, roasted green tea powder\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eOrigin:\u003c\/strong\u003e Wazuka, Uji, Kyoto, Japan\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCultivars:\u003c\/strong\u003e Okumidori, Samidori, Yabukita\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHarvest:\u003c\/strong\u003e Summer harvest\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eProcessing:\u003c\/strong\u003e Roasted over charcoal, finely ground\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTaste:\u003c\/strong\u003e Roasted hazelnut, caramel, warm and gentle\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBest for:\u003c\/strong\u003e Evenings, as a hōjicha latte or pure\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePreparation:\u003c\/strong\u003e 2 g in 60 to 80 ml water at 70 to 80 °C.
