Hi, my name is Taka from Japan.

For several years, I lived as a digital nomad, traveling mainly across Europe while working online. During my travels, I noticed the growing popularity of matcha in cafés and specialty stores. However, I also discovered that genuinely high-quality Japanese matcha was often difficult to find.

That experience inspired me to take the next step.

Instead of simply writing about travel, I began building my own Japanese matcha brand and documenting every stage of the journey—from finding OEM manufacturers in Kyoto and evaluating samples to designing packaging, researching export requirements, and preparing for international sales.

Today, I share the practical knowledge and real-world experience I gained throughout that process to help entrepreneurs avoid costly mistakes and launch their own Japanese matcha brands with confidence.

I hope this guide helps you take the first step toward building your own successful business.
