About Super Premium Kuki Hojicha

Copper Tea’s Super Premium Kuki Hojicha Powder is a light-roasted Japanese hojicha made exclusively from tea stems (kuki), which are naturally richer in aromatic compounds like pyrazines and furans than traditional tea leaves. This stem-only selection results in a complex, elegant flavour and a distinctively refined aroma that sets it apart from standard dark-roasted hojicha.

Expertly roasted at lower temperatures to preserve the stems’ delicate aroma, this powder displays a warm, green-tinged chestnut colour — an indicator of its freshness and quality. Notes of caramelized sugars, toasted sesame, and roasted chestnut shine through without the bitterness or char found in lower-grade hojicha.

With its low caffeine content, light roast character, and fine powder form, this bulk hojicha powder is ideal for high-volume applications in cafés, bakeries, and food production facilities. It dissolves easily into liquids and mixes seamlessly into dry or wet preparations.

Most suited for:

• Specialty lattes and milk-based beverages
• Ganaches, pastry creams, chocolates
• Delicate baked goods (chiffon, castella, sable)
• Sophisticated sauces, caramel bases, and glazes
