Black Sheep Coffee has introduced a new hojicha range in the US alongside the return of its pumpkin spice drinks as part of a limited-edition autumn menu.

Launched across the brand’s US locations earlier this month, the seasonal line-up combines coffee, matcha and hojicha-based beverages with autumn-inspired flavours including pumpkin spice, maple, pecan, salted caramel and macadamia.

The introduction of hojicha marks an expansion of Black Sheep Coffee’s tea offering. The roasted Japanese green tea has a mellow, nutty flavour profile and is being positioned as an alternative to the brighter taste of matcha.

The new Matcha & Hojicha collection includes a classic latte, a vanilla variety and a Salted Caramel & Macadamia option. Each can be made with either ceremonial-grade matcha or hojicha and is available hot or iced with a choice of milk.

Black Sheep Coffee has also brought back its Pumpkin Spice Latte, alongside a Pumpkin Spice Cold Brew Latte with Cold Foam and a Pumpkin Spice Matcha Latte.

Completing the seasonal range is a Maple & Pecan Acai Bowl, featuring an acai base topped with pecans, granola and maple drizzle.

Eirik Holth, co-founder of Black Sheep Coffee, said: “There’s always something exciting about fall and the start of a new season. Of course we had to bring back Pumpkin Spice, but we also wanted to give people something new to try. Hojicha has this roasted, nutty flavor that feels perfect for fall.”

The launch forms part of Black Sheep Coffee’s wider focus on globally influenced menu innovation across coffee and tea.
