Connecting Japanese Tea with the World
Supporting tea farmers in Japan while helping global partners grow their tea businesses.

Our Mission
At LILIKU TEA, our mission is to support the long-term sustainability of Japanese tea farmers while helping our international partners build successful tea businesses.
We believe the future of Japanese tea depends not only on the farmers who grow it, but also on the businesses around the world that introduce it to new audiences. By connecting these two sides, we aim to create a mutually beneficial ecosystem where producers, partners, and tea drinkers all thrive.
What We Do
We work closely with tea farmers and producers across Japan to source high-quality Japanese teas that we can confidently introduce to our partners overseas.
Through our network of producers, we curate a diverse selection of teas including matcha, hojicha, sencha, and other traditional Japanese teas.
Our role is not simply to export tea. We act as a bridge between Japanese producers and businesses around the world, helping our partners find teas that match their concept, market, and customers.
Supporting Our Global Partners
Our partners are located around the world, and each market has different needs, preferences, and regulatory environments.
Rather than focusing only on selling products, we focus on recommending teas that truly fit our partners' business models—whether they run a café, tea shop, restaurant, or private label brand.
When our partners grow their businesses locally, more people discover and enjoy Japanese tea. We believe this grassroots expansion is one of the most meaningful ways to build the future of Japanese tea worldwide.
