I rarely comment on the appearance of dry leaf, but the orange blossom petals in this are really lovely! The tea has a strong aroma and brews up with a bright citrus flavor. It's a little tart and bitter but the roasted and sweet honey notes smooth it out, resulting in a rich, complex, dessert-y drink. I liked it so much that I just ordered a second bag.

After trying (and enjoying) Ocharaka’s Houjicha Japanese Pumpkin, I’m looking forward to trying the three other flavors I picked up. This is the one I was most excited for, so it’s going first! It’s a combination of roasted stems (apparently gyokuro stems) and leaves and there are also some flower petals and citrus peel mixed in. Dry scent is lovely sweet citrus with some roasted and rich notes.
Mm, the steeped tea has a lovely sweet and mild grapefruit aroma along with a strong roasted undercurrent. Yum, the grapefruit flavor here is lovely! For some reason, grapefruit is a flavor that tends to be done well in tea, happily for me. I’m not sure I really taste honey, I think it’s melding with the slightly sweet and rich roasted houjicha base. Delish! Ocharaka has done it again with this one.

One of the best flavored hojicha in the series. If you would like to get your body warm, this is our recommendation. It is flesh smell of grapefruit. You can arrange with honey or sugar or slice of lemon!
