SANNOLU 100% JEJU Hoji Tea 90g

Description

Jeju’s volcanic soil helps tea trees grow strong and healthy without root rot, benefiting from a stable average temperature of 14°C, ideal for cultivating high-quality tea. The traditional tea production method in Jeju relies on clean volcanic spring water, rich in minerals and nutrients, creating an optimal environment for tea with superior flavor.

Jeju’s natural environment has provided it with a global competitive edge in green tea production. However, the industry faces structural and distribution challenges that hinder sustainable growth. To address this, we aim to develop and promote sustainable practices that support local agricultural communities, enhancing both consumer engagement and long-term local prosperity.

Partnering with mid-sized farms and producers, SANNOLU collaborates with local growers to bring high-quality tea directly to consumers. Our goal is to expand awareness and consumption of Jeju green tea by establishing stores and cafes that share knowledge about green tea and offer a variety of ways to enjoy it. Our collaborations support cultural innovation and sustainability, encouraging more responsible and impactful consumption.

SANNOLU operates a certified food manufacturing plant, ensuring the highest standards of quality and safety.

• Sourcing: After the harvest, tea leaves are collected from small farms across Jeju.
• Sorting: The youngest leaves are used to produce a selection of teas, with each variety offering unique flavors and aromas.
• Drying: After steaming, the tea leaves are dried under controlled sunlight, which mellows the flavors.
• Grinding: The dried leaves are ground into fine powder, preserving their natural qualities.
• Bottling: The final product is bottled to maintain freshness and quality.

Hojicha

Hojicha is a finely ground powdered tea, similar to matcha, made by roasting tea leaves once more. The unique toasty and earthy flavors, combined with a mild bitterness, give it a deep, savory taste.

How to Enjoy Hojicha

1. Prepare a deep bowl that can hold hojicha. Add a suitable amount of hojicha powder with a teaspoon, adjusting the amount to taste.

2. Using boiled water, pour over the hojicha powder to mellow out the bitterness and enhance the fresh, natural flavors. Let the boiled water cool for about 1 minute, then pour around 50 ml into the bowl.

3. Whisk for about 30 seconds until a fine foam appears. If you don’t have a whisk, use a teaspoon to dissolve the powder fully.

4. Enjoy the prepared hojicha as is, or with milk or water to experience the natural health benefits. You can add sweeteners for a richer taste if desired. SANNOLU Hojicha preserves the natural essence without additives.
