Three reasons to love Cuzen's Organic Hojicha 

  • Two glass mugs of hojicha and matcha in front of the Matcha Maker Sumi Black.

    1. Delicious hojicha made simple.

    Hojicha is a Japanese green tea, roasted at high heat for a toasty aroma and smooth, mellow taste. At Cuzen Matcha, we roast tencha (the leaf ground to make matcha) so that you can enjoy it freshly-ground with the Cuzen Matcha Maker.

  • A saucerful of Cuzen's Organic Hojicha Leaf.

    2. 100% organic

    We use only certified organic tea leaves grown in Japan, with special attention to preserving umami—an element often considered difficult to cultivate in organic tea.

  • A short glass tea cup of hojicha latte, made with Cuzen's freshly-ground Organic Hojicha Leaf.

    3. Gentle comfort, roasted aroma.

    A soothing, roasted fragrance and a calm, smooth flavor. Perfect for after meals or a relaxing evening cup.

The white Cuzen Mill Unit Case for storing the Matcha Maker Ceramic Mill Unit.

Kato Seisakusho × Cuzen Matcha Mill Unit Case

The Mill Unit Case was designed by Kato Seisakusho, a business that has been making tea canisters for over 120 years. The Cuzen Mill Unit Case was customized to perfectly fit the Ceramic Mill Unit so you can easily switch between teas.

Its inner lid is made of tin, which protects the tea leaves from humidity and minimizes the impact of external temperature and moisture. This creates a stable environment inside the canister, helping preserve the freshness of matcha for longer. It can be used as a versatile storage canister for tea leaves, coffee beans or other dry foods.

Each time you open the lid, you’ll feel the reliability of a seal shaped by generations of craftsmanship. As a quiet reflection of artisanal expertise, the integrity of your tea leaves will be preserved, so that you are free to enjoy your matcha moment.
