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.

This tea is perfect in the cold season. This tea undergoes the roasting procedure, which causes the taste notes of bitter chocolate and almond nuts to appear. The tea contains a very small amount of caffeine and tannin, so it can be drunk even for children.

GENMAICHA : (brown 米 茶, "brown rice tea") is a Japanese green brown rice tea consisting of green tea mixed with fried airy brown rice. It is sometimes called "popcorn tea", because during the roasting process, several grains of rice float up and resemble popcorn, or as "folk tea". Sugar and starch from rice give the tea a warm, rich nutty taste has a light yellow tint. It is easy to drink and also has a beneficial effect on the stomach.

Rice grains eliminate the sharpness of fresh Japanese tea. It warms pleasantly in cold weather, is perfect for both evening tea drinking and for providing a strong tonic effect. In addition, genmaicha eliminates a strong appetite.
