Meet Aiko Matcha

Bringing Pure Japanese Matcha to Modern Australia

AIKO was born from a simple desire: to bring the purest, highest quality Japanese matcha to Australia – and to make it part of a modern, mindful lifestyle.

Founded in Perth by two close friends (Gina & Karen), Aiko Matcha is an online start-up dedicated to sharing the beauty and benefits of authentic Japanese matcha. Our matcha is grown in Uji and other revered growing regions of Japan to source ceremonial-grade matcha that is freshly stone-ground upon order. This ensures maximum freshness, vibrant colour, and rich umami flavour in every serving.
