100% Hojicha (Camellia Sinensis) Roasted Green Tea Powder.

Hojicha is crafted from roasted green tea leaves, creating a naturally low-caffeine tea rich in calming L-theanine and antioxidant polyphenols. The roasting process transforms the tea’s plant compounds, reducing bitterness and caffeine while enhancing soothing properties that support relaxation and gentle focus. Hojicha’s polyphenols help protect cells from everyday oxidative stress, while its warm, roasted profile makes it easier on the stomach compared to unroasted green teas. Because it contains only trace amounts of caffeine, Hojicha offers a grounding, evening-friendly way to enjoy the benefits of green tea in a smooth, balanced, whole-leaf form.

Health Benefits of Ritual Grade Hojicha Powder

Calm Focus & Nervous System Support

Hojicha naturally contains L-theanine — an amino acid associated with mental clarity, calm energy and balanced mood. The roasting process reduces caffeine levels significantly, allowing for relaxation without drowsiness. This makes Hojicha a grounding daily drink for anyone sensitive to caffeine or seeking a soothing alternative to coffee or matcha.

Antioxidant Protection & Cellular Support

Although roasted, Hojicha retains valuable tea polyphenols that provide antioxidant protection. These compounds help defend against oxidative stress, support healthy ageing and contribute to immune resilience. The gentle roasting process also produces additional aromatic antioxidants through Maillard reactions, adding depth to its wellness profile.

Digestive Comfort & Gentle on the Stomach

Hojicha is known for its smooth, low-tannin character, making it easier on digestion compared to many unroasted teas. Its mellow profile supports a calm stomach and gentle evening wind-down, offering a warm and soothing option for those who find traditional green teas too sharp or acidic.

Low-Caffeine Energy Without Jitters

Because the roasting process naturally lowers caffeine content, Hojicha provides steady, grounded energy without overstimulation. It is suitable for late-afternoon or nighttime lattes, pregnancy-friendly routines (subject to personal guidance) and anyone seeking a warm, flavourful drink with minimal caffeine impact.

What Is Hojicha?

Hojicha is a traditional Japanese roasted green tea made from leaves that are lightly pan-roasted to develop their deep, toasty aroma and reduce caffeine. After roasting, the leaves are stone-milled into a fine powder similar to matcha, allowing them to blend seamlessly into lattes, hot drinks, iced beverages and baking. Revered for its comforting flavour and calming properties, Hojicha has become a favourite ritual for those wanting a soothing tea with a rich, roasted profile.

Before Wellness Was Engineered

For most of history, plants were consumed whole - brewed, ground, or gently prepared as part of daily rituals, not stripped down for speed or scale.

What Convenience Changed

Modern processing prioritised efficiency, isolating single compounds and removing much of the plant’s natural context and balance.

Where We Come In

We return to whole-plant forms - minimally processed, thoughtfully prepared, and designed to support modern rituals built on ancient logic.
