This has to be by far my favorite tea that I have purchased from here thus far. It's a nice mild tea, slightly sweet on its own, with a distinct woodsy flavor that just had me hooked from the first moment I took a sip a few years ago in a Japanese Steak House. From... (more)

Very different from the unroasted Senegal Katigane but quite delicious and excellent with a slice of your favourite cake which won’t drown out the flavour. Strong but sweet and unctuous unlike astringent black tea. Another excellent offering from Hibiki-An. We have trie... (more)

This tea is most suitable for the cold brew method. Take 20g and add to 1L water. Place in fridge for 8 to 24 hours. (Choose time based on strength of tea required) The result is a wonderful, refreshing roasted tea flavour. It reminds me of caramel. For hot ... (more)

I prefer unroasted green tea, and was surprised at how great this roasted tea, Houjicha Karigane, tastes. It reminds me of a nutella cappuccino with hints of berries and herbs. It also reminds me a bit of Genmaicha, which I love! It's as comforting as black tea wit... (more)

A must for the winter tea pantry, this roasted tea satisfies in a way that green teas do not. The aroma is soft and below. the taste - a roasted, slightly smoky taste that silkens in the mouth and settles at the back of the throat. Your taste buds will beg for more. Th... (more)

The taste of Houjicha Karigane compared to Houjicha Bancha is subtle but it definitely has its own unique taste that I am very much enjoying. I have tried and enjoyed both types of Houjicha now and it is absolutely going to be one of my staples of life from now on espec... (more)

This is a wonderful tea that I first tried last winter. I am used to drinking coffee in the morning, so I found the roasted flavor was very nice during winter nights without the caffeine. Like the product description said, you can re-steep 3 times and the flavor was goo... (more)

I am a big fan of houjicha. It's my favourite after dinner beverage, and I enjoy it in the evening thanks to its low caffeine content. I have tried a few houjichas from other vendors, and this is my new favourite. The stem of a tea leaf contains a large amo... (more)

i was looking for this specific tea for a while after my local tea shop stopped selling it. roasted twig tea is the only tea i truly enjoy because of it's wonderful aroma and nice taste. i drink it in summer instead of coffee because of the light texture it has.

All you houjicha lovers out there - I can recommend you this Houjicha Karigane with confidence! Actually I love this tea so much that I can't go back even to the very flavourful Houjicha of Hibiki-An. Although I'm a gyokuro lover, this is my favourite tea i... (more)
