Karigane is made from the stalks and veins of the leaves intended for Gyokuro and is characterised by its nutty, creamy flavour with a strong aroma. This proprietary blend of tea leaves are then roasted to become this elegant Hojicha. When roasted at a higher temperature, the bitterness is removed and a gentle sweetness comes through this deep roasted tea. Hojicha is best served with grilled dishes as it accompanies the smokey flavours well. Often served cold in the summer months, this tea is both refreshing and a thirst quencher thanks to its low bitterness and astringency.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eMarukyu Koyamaen's '丸久小山園', history spans 300 years, and epitomises a commitment to quality in tea production.
