Kage - Medium Roast Hōjicha 60g
Meet Kage, our very first release of our Hōjicha, a tea that deserves far more attention than it gets.
Kage (影) translates to shadow, a tribute to Hōjicha’s quieter, warmer personality. While matcha stands in the spotlight, Hōjicha has always been the underdog: comforting, roasted, grounding. Don't underestimate the underdog, it might just become your favourite! This medium-roast version is crafted from tea leaves gently fired to bring out caramel notes, toasted warmth, and a naturally low-caffeine profile.
Sourced from a farmer known for perfecting balance in roast levels, Kage is smooth, nutty, and incredibly versatile — delicious on its own or as a latte. Our Hōjicha is from the Wazuka area in Japan.
On the palate, Kage delivers mellow roasted notes layered with subtle sweetness and a soft caramel finish.
