Best moment of the day: Morning Calm – Cozy Afternoons – After-Dinner Relaxation.
Japanese tea is traditionally offered with Japanese sweets.
They also pair very well with all sorts of meals, either for breakfast, lunch, breaks, or even dinner (for the lower-caffeine tea).
During his years of serving tea to his dear customers, Mohei's knowledge of the flavors and characteristics of his teas allows him to share the wonders of an exceptional green tea served with the right food. When paired well, Japanese tea can unlock further benefits such as better digestion, better diet, or enhanced sensation of satiety.
Nº15 Kokuyo | Hojicha Leaves
¥2,500
A specialty hojicha, crafted through a slow, high-temperature roasting process that draws out the tea’s naturally sweet, toasty aroma and mellow flavor.
The moment hot water touches the leaves in your teapot, a gentle wave of caramelized fragrance rises, setting the tone for a calming experience. With a light brew, you’ll enjoy its soft sweetness; steep it a little longer to reveal a touch of balanced bitterness.
