Thoughtfully sourced matcha with intention, care, and respect.
Kioku Cha was born from a shared love for tea and the experiences surrounding it, deeply influenced by time spent in Japan. For most of us, this connection comes from having lived there, where tea is not simply a beverage, but an everyday ritual rooted in care, attention, and purpose.
That appreciation deepened further through close relationships and continued learning. Being exposed to Japanese tea culture opened the door to understanding tea beyond matcha alone. In Japan, tea is part of daily life and enjoyed with intention, tenderness, and respect.
“Kioku” means “memory” in Japanese. This brand is about sharing meaningful memories made in Japan and creating new ones together. While matcha is where we begin, our focus is on education, cultural appreciation, and the quiet joy found in tea rituals.
We also hope to collaborate with others who share the same values so we can continue building a community rooted in mindful living, cultural respect, and good tea. In time, we hope to expand into other Japanese teas and explore additional aspects of Japanese culture and lifestyle.
