From the makers, matchaleaves:
Yamabuki is a hojicha powder crafted from organic Japanese green tea grown in Uji, Kyoto, and carefully ground in a traditional stone mill. This process gives Yamabuki its rich, fragrant aroma and smooth texture. It dissolves effortlessly, making it an ideal ingredient for a wide range of recipes, from teas and lattes to sweets and desserts. Enclosed within the pouch is a generous portion of 60g of Uji Hojicha.
* The term "Yamabuki" translates to "light brown" in ancient Japanese. In old Kyoto, the color of leaves as they turned during the fall season was often described as "Yamabuki," capturing the warm, earthy hues of autumn.
