SONO Organic Hojicha Powder – Fine Matcha-Style Roasted Japanese Green Tea, Kyoto Origin, 3.5oz / 100g

Experience SONO Organic Hojicha Powder

SONO Organic Hojicha Powder is a fine, roasted green tea powder crafted from organic Japanese leaves harvested in Kyoto. This JAS-certified product brings a warm, smoky-earthy aroma to everyday beverages and recipes, offering versatility for tea lovers and home cooks who want an easy-to-mix powder that blends smoothly into drinks and batters alike. The net weight is 100 g (3.527 oz), and each container supports about 100 servings when prepared per the suggested guidelines.

Origin and process: the leaves come from traditional Uji tea farming families in Kyoto, carrying generations of tea-making expertise. After harvest, the leaves are roasted at high heat and milled into a powder as delicate as matcha. The result is a grayish-brown powder with a savory profile and a natural earthiness that lingers on the palate, offering a comforting, roasted character rather than a harsh bite.

What makes it special

• UJ ICHA heritage: crafted by an Ujicha farmer in Kyoto, carrying generations of tea-making tradition since the Edo period.
• Fine powder texture: milled to a smooth finish that dissolves readily with little mouthfeel residue.
• Roasted aroma: high-heat roasting yields a savory, smoky-earthy scent and a warm brown color.
• Versatile uses: ideal for hot teas, hojicha lattes, cooking, baking, and as a topping.
