Hana Houjicha

This month's Founder's Collection features houjicha from Fukuoka. The tea leaf is withered prior to roasting allowing essential oils and plant alcohols to oxidize creating a rich, floral aroma. The light roast helps maintain the freshness of the tea and adds a notable complexity. Sharing characteristics of sencha, houjicha, and oolong, this tea is one of a kind.
