Superior Japanese Green Tea
MAIKO TEA SHOP




The "lightly roasted Houjicha" has quickly become one of Maikotea’s most popular products. After the harvest at the beginning of May Karigane tea (stems and leaves) is slowly roasted in a porcelain pot over charcoal at a low temperature altering the color tints from green to a light brown.
Houjicha infusions have a light- to reddish-brown appearance and are less astringent due to losing catechins during the firing process. The roasted flavors are extracted and dominate this blend replacing the vegetative tones of standard green tea with a toasty, slightly caramel-like flavor. This process also lowers the amount of caffeine in the tea. Asairi Houjicha is a perfect tea for children and the elderly and can be served with or even after the evening meal before going to sleep.

Asairi Houjicha has a lighter color than regular Houjicha.
