Hōjicha : Khojicha (ō う じ 茶) is a Japanese green tea. It differs from other Japanese green teas in that it is fried in a porcelain dish on coals, whereas most Japanese teas are steamed. The tea is roasted at a high temperature, changing the color shade of the leaves from green to reddish-brown. The process was first performed in Kyoto, Japan, in the 1920s, and its popularity persists today.

Because of its softness, Hōjicha is a popular tea that is served during dinner or after it, before going to bed, and is even preferred by children and the elderly.

Since it is a triangular-shaped tea bag, the tea leaves bounce up and down, revealing the taste, color and aroma. 

They have excellent water permeability.
