FIRST TIME HOJICHA!
My first time trying Hojicha. I made an iced latte with this & it was delicious. Would buy this brand again.

YUMMY SURPRISE!
This tea was definitely something that I wasn’t completely expecting. It tasted very yummy with a little bit of almond milk and Stevia. I really enjoyed it and so glad that I tried something completely new. Thank you Harney & Sons for this great experience!
