Gentle Roasted Notes and Elegant Umami with a Smooth, Mellow Finish.

A smooth, full-bodied taste with no unwanted bitterness or harshness. This organic hojicha powder offers a rich depth of flavor and natural sweetness without an overpowering character. Carefully crafted using the traditional stone-milling method, it delivers a depth and aromatic richness that sets it apart from hojicha powders produced using conventional grinding machines.

Velvet Ember is made from tencha leaves grown in Kyoto and harvested as first flush—the same premium-grade tea leaves traditionally used to make koicha, or thick matcha. These leaves are carefully roasted to bring out their rich yet delicate umami, along with a naturally smooth and mellow character.

Enjoy Velvet Ember hot or cold, on its own or as a latte, or use it to add depth and aroma to your favorite baked goods and desserts. A versatile hojicha powder made to be savored in many different ways.
