Japanese Tea for Sweet Potatoes Hojicha & Rice Tea

Japanese Tea for Sweet Potatoes — Roasted Stem Hojicha & Rice

A Japanese tea created specifically to enjoy with sweet potatoes.

Roasted sweet potato is one of the familiar flavors of autumn in Japan — warm, naturally sweet and especially comforting with a cup of freshly brewed tea.

This blend was created by a Japanese tea specialist to complement that experience.

The base is bō hojicha, a roasted green tea made primarily from tea stems rather than leaves. Roasting brings out a warm, toasty aroma with a mellow sweetness and gentle depth.

Japanese roasted rice is then blended with the hojicha, adding another layer of nutty, roasted fragrance.

Together, the two create a warm and aromatic tea that pairs beautifully with the natural sweetness of roasted sweet potato.
