Ito En Oi Ocha Eco Tea Bags Hojicha 1.8g x 20 Bags - Toasty, mellow 100% Japanese roasted green tea, brews hot or cold in seconds.
Description
Ito En's Oi Ocha is Japan's most trusted everyday tea brand, and this Hojicha is its roasted green tea expression. The leaves are 100% Japanese-grown and slowly roasted at high heat, giving a toasty aroma, an amber cup, and a smooth, mellow, low-bitterness taste that is naturally gentle and comforting. Each Eco Tea Bag uses an environmentally friendly, biodegradable filter, and brews hot or cold (mizudashi). For Filipino households, it is an authentic, easy way to enjoy real Japanese tea at home, a calming after-meal or evening drink, and a thoughtful pasalubong for anyone who loves Japan-made quality.
How to Enjoy
- Place one tea bag in your cup or pot.
- For hot tea, pour about 95C hot water over the bag and steep for around 30 seconds, then remove.
- For cold brew (mizudashi), drop one bag into a bottle or pitcher of cold water and refrigerate until the desired strength is reached.
- Adjust steeping time to taste; enjoy hot or chilled. One bag makes one cup.
Ingredients
- Green tea leaves (product of Japan)
