our story
April 2025,
When I started House of Berry, I wanted to create more than just another matcha brand.
I wanted to build an experience that made people stop, smile, and discover just how special matcha could be. What began as Auckland's first matcha pop-up introduced thousands of Kiwis to their first cup of matcha and grew into a community that continues to inspire everything we do.
Today, we're bringing that same experience into homes across New Zealand through our signature ceremonial-grade matcha, matcha kits, tools, and workshops, so every cup feels just as special as the first.
Small beginnings. Big dreams.
Our customers at markets kept asking the same question:
"Can I enjoy this at home, how can I make this?"
So we travelled to Japan to find a supplier who shared our values.
Today, we proudly source our ceremonial-grade matcha directly from a fifth-generation tea producer, bringing the same vibrant flavour and quality from our pop-up to your daily ritual at home.
Built on Community
House of Berry started at local Auckland markets. Every conversation, returning customer, and shared cup of matcha has shaped who we are today. Our community continues to inspire everything we create.
Quality First
Every cup begins in Japan. We proudly source our first-harvest ceremonial matcha directly from a fifth-generation family tea producer. Our signature blend of Saemidori and Yutakamidori cultivars creates the vibrant colour, smooth finish, and naturally sweet flavour that makes House of Berry special.
Made with Love
Crafted with purpose, care, and love. So every cup feels special and becomes part of your daily ritual.
