**FKRŌ Matcha** is a US retailer offering first-harvest Japanese matcha sourced from family farms in Shizuoka, Kagoshima, Kyoto, Shiga and Nagasaki.

Its ceremonial range spans single-cultivar Saemidori and Okumidori matchas, an Asanoka-Okumidori blend and limited regional reserves. The leaves are shaded before harvest, stone-ground slowly in Japan and air-freighted monthly to the United States.
