Hokage (焔影) is a premium organic hojicha powder from Uji, Kyoto, with a deep smoky character that sets it apart from lighter roasts. The color brews to a rich mahogany, and the flavor carries bold roasted depth with a long, warming finish.

Its intensity makes Hokage remarkably efficient: a little powder delivers a full-flavored drink, and the roasted character stands strong in milk. For cafés building a signature hojicha latte with real presence, Hokage is the one to reach for.

The tea fields of Ujitawara are celebrated for their exceptional quality, a result of the area’s ideal terrain, fertile soil, and misty climate—conditions that have supported tea cultivation for centuries.

Among these, the Okudaifuku area holds particular historical importance, as it is said to be the first place where tea trees were planted in Japan.
