Uji Hojicha: Strong Roasting in Kyoto’s Uji Tea World
Uji hojicha begins with heat. Hojicha is made by roasting sencha or bancha over strong heat; Uji places that roasted tea inside Kyoto Prefecture’s Uji tea world, with the Tea Research Institute in Uji City’s Shirakawa Nakanosono and tea spaces where instructors teach brewing and chakabuki tasting. Seen from the leaf, the tea is built from concrete parts: after aracha production, older leaves, harder leaves, stems, powdered tea, and other pieces can be sorted; yanagi and stems can move into roasted-tea processing. Seen from Kyoto, the surrounding work includes quality improvement, cultivar breeding, environmental conservation, labor saving, product development, public tea lessons, new-tea events, and a large tea-business community.

FAQ
What is Uji hojicha called in Japanese?
It is written 宇治ほうじ茶 in Japanese. Search Rakuten and other Japanese sites with that spelling — the English name will not return the listings.
How do you brew Uji hojicha?
Water temperature varies a lot by type of Japanese tea: roughly 50–60°C for gyokuro, 70–80°C for sencha, and near-boiling 90–100°C for hojicha (including roasted stem tea), bancha, and genmaicha, steeped for about 30 seconds to a minute. A common ratio is about 3g of leaf per 150ml of water. Follow the instructions on the packaging where they differ.
How should Uji hojicha be stored?
Tea leaves are damaged by light, humidity, and absorbed odours. Once opened, keep them sealed and away from light at room temperature and drink them within a few weeks. If you refrigerate them, let the container return to room temperature before opening so condensation doesn't get in.
