Our Story

Komeru is a Japanese tea specialist shaped by sincerity, curiosity, and a pursuit of excellence. Rooted in the phrase 心を込める (kokoro wo komeru) – "to put your whole heart in", it reflects the wholehearted passion of farmers who dedicate their lives to the craft of tea.

Our work begins at the source. Walking the fields, meeting the farmers, and studying their practices. We seek out farms that embody the same values we uphold: care, precision, and integrity. Each selection is guided not only by taste, but by the alignment of spirit and standards.

When it comes to Japanese tea, we believe in doing more, going further, and never compromising. This is our promise, and our way of making tea worthy of those who drink it.

Komeru takes you beyond Japan's well-known tea regions to discover exceptional leaves from across the country. Beyond the familiar regions lies a world of Japanese tea few will ever encounter.

Welcome to Komeru.

A note from the owner:

Tea has been long present in my life, and  looking back - it often represents something more than the beverage alone. It’s a good way to start a long day, a form of reminiscing my travels to Japan, a pot that can be shared over a conversation, and a staple in my family dinners.

Komeru, from the phrase “心を込める” (kokoro wo komeru), centers around the sincerity and passion of tea farmers behind every tea. This belief extends into why we exist, putting thought and dedication in our curation and always providing quality assured tea to our customers. I hope customers of Komeru will similarly practice this in their daily lives and enjoy special moments with tea.

お茶は、私の人生に長い間存在しています。振り返ると、お茶はただの飲み物以上の意味を持っていると思います。長い一日の始まりにぴったりで、日本への旅行を思い出させてくれます。そして、会話をしながら他の人と楽しむことができ、私の家族の夕食には欠かせないものです。

「KOMERU」は、「心を込める」という言葉から取られており、お茶を心を込めて作る茶農家の情熱や誠実さを大切にしたブランドです。この信念は、私たちの運営にも反映させており、心を込めてお茶を選び、常に品質が保証されたお茶をお客様に提供しています。Komeruのお客様が日常生活の中でも心を込めて過ごし、特別なひとときをお茶と共に楽しんでいただけることを願っています。
