HOUTOKU COFFEE HOUTOKU COFFEE specializes in distinctive snow‑aged coffee and premium Japanese matcha. For coffee, we select high-quality green beans from Colombia, Brazil, and Indonesia, then carefully mature them in natural snow cellars in Niigata, Japan. Using traditional Yukimuro aging, the low-temperature, high-humidity, oxygen‑limited environment allows slow, gentle maturation, delivering an exceptionally smooth, mellow flavor with reduced bitterness and acidity, enhanced sweetness and aroma, and an eco-friendly production process. Our matcha lineup includes snow‑aged matcha and ceremonial-grade matcha. Snow‑aged matcha, stored in Niigata’s snow cellars before milling, features deep umami, smooth texture, vivid green color, and low bitterness, perfect for lattes and desserts. Our ceremonial-grade matcha from Shizuoka and Mie, made from first-flush leaves of Samidori, Okumidori, and Yabukita cultivars, offers rich umami, silky texture, and vibrant color, ideal for traditional tea and premium drinks. Through direct partnerships with trusted Japanese farms, we ensure stable quality, reliable supply, and full traceability.
