About Emeri
Emeri is a Vancouver-based matcha brand built on a simple belief: we don’t define the best matcha, we help you find yours. We work directly with multi-generational farmers across Japan to source distinct expressions of matcha, each with its own character, balance, and story.
Our mission is to help people find a matcha that suits their palate while raising the bar for quality and experience across North America.
At our core, we are a hospitality-driven brand. We are building spaces that feel welcoming, energetic, and engaging. Spaces where people can come together, connect, and feel genuinely taken care of.
We believe great hospitality is not just about service, but about how people feel. From the moment a guest walks in to the moment they leave, every interaction matters.
