IRO Premium Hojicha Powder is an organic roasted green tea in powder form, originating from the mountainous region of Shizuoka in Japan. Despite its brown color, Hojicha is indeed a green tea – the roasting of the leaves produces caramel, woody and cocoa notes and a pleasant, non-bitter flavor.

What makes this Hojicha exceptional is the careful selection of only the finest parts of the tea leaves from the first spring harvest – without stems, veins or leaves from later harvests. This approach results in an exceptionally fine powder of top quality, which was awarded the “Épicures d'argent” trophy in 2025, a prestigious award for the best delicacies.

With its soft, roasted taste – reminiscent of cocoa and hazelnuts – this tea is not only a pleasure for tea lovers, but also a surprising alternative for coffee drinkers.
