I loved this Hojicha. The powder smells good and was so fine. When I made a latte, it was so smooth. The latte smelled like chocolate and also tasted a bit like it, too. I love the nutty taste, too.

I have no doubt that this is a high quality product, however the notes of nori —resulting in a strong, fishy taste— would have been nice to be informed of earlier.

This flavor is great to introduce you to hojicha. I have added hojicha to rotation of morning drinks.
