Maruwu Co., Ltd.
Challenge the tradition and possibilities of Japanese tea
Challenge New Japanese Tea.
Maruwu Co., Ltd. is headquartered in Uji City, Kyoto Prefecture, which is one of the world’s leading Uji tea producing areas.
In partnership with top local producers and judges, we carefully select high-quality Uji tea based on strict screening standards.
We manufacture and sell Japanese tea.
In addition, crossing industries and borders, connecting tradition and modernity,
We aim to explore the new form of Japanese tea.
Through Japanese tea, we will redefine each connection between people, food, culture, and lifestyle, and bring happiness and excitement to everyone.
As we say, “Everything in the world is connected，even though a dust, a thought, a tree, a leaf.”, We value the “fate” . We provide tea with the “tea’s fate”, that is, the “fate” of tea, which is supported by everyone. Furthermore, through tea, we connect with various customers every day.
At the same time, we not only research and develop tea products and Japanese tea food and drink menus with new technology according to the modern food lifestyle, but also pursue and provide services that create time, space, and experience.
What is human affluence? What is health? We are constantly looking back and challenging the infinite possibilities of Japanese tea.
We will strive to be a company that will serve as a bridge for Japanese tea, with “tea’s fate” as the medium and “sincerity and faith” as the morality, so that more people around the world will know and like it.
