About Us ✦
Why “Kuro”?
From the very beginning, our dream was to create a brand inspired by our beloved cats. Our first-born, Kuro Chan, became the heart of that vision—and the namesake behind Matcha Kuro.
Where Do We Source Our Matcha?
Matcha shortages are real, and supporting small, sustainable farms is important to us. That’s why we partner with family-run farms in Shizuoka and Kagoshima, Japan—regions known for producing some of the finest matcha in the world.
Is Our Matcha Powder “Ceremonial”?
You’ll often see matcha labeled as “ceremonial grade,” but the truth is that these terms aren’t officially regulated—meaning quality can differ widely between brands.
At Matcha Kuro, we like to keep things clear and honest. Instead of using vague labels, we describe our product as Premium Grade Matcha: smooth, vibrant, and delicious enough to savor on its own. No gimmicks—just pure, high-quality matcha you can trust.
