Site Positioning and Core Business

NewTitle (newtitle.tokyo) is a next-generation Japanese tea brand launched by Kanekita Kawakami Seicha, a long-established Japanese tea manufacturer. Its core positioning is to deliver the value of Japanese tea to working professionals, building a vertical platform that integrates content information, product retail, and offline Japanese tea culture services. Its business covers three main sections:

• The Finding section publishes Japanese tea-related content, including reviews of newly opened tea shops, tea industry reports, and basic knowledge of Japanese tea culture;
• The Experience section provides offline services, including office tea installation, corporate event catering, and planning for Japanese tea-themed events;
• The Shopping section directly sells Japanese tea, tea utensils, and tea-related merchandise from its own brand and partner brands.

Pricing & Experience Advantages

The pricing of retail products is in line with the regular level in Japan. Most single-pack teas are priced under 1,000 yen, offering good value for money. The pricing for corporate catering services is transparent, and plans can be flexibly adjusted according to budget, making it suitable for customizing all kinds of business events.

Backed by a hundred-year-old tea manufacturing enterprise, the content from NewTitle is highly professional. The editorial team has backgrounds in both media and the tea industry, and their reports go deep into the frontline of the Japanese tea industry, which is very valuable for users who want to understand new Japanese tea culture. The full-chain business model meets the complete needs from information acquisition to purchasing experience, and its differentiated positioning also avoids the homogeneous competition of the traditional tea industry.

Shortcomings & Target Audience

Content updates on the site have been paused since 2021, so there are questions about the sustainability of its business operations. In addition, all services and content are only available for the Japanese market; offline catering and events only cover the Kanto region, and overseas users cannot participate. The site only supports Japanese, so it is not very user-friendly for Chinese users.

This website is suitable for enthusiasts who want to learn about new Japanese tea culture, and enterprises that need to host business events in Tokyo, Japan and require custom Japanese tea catering services. Ordinary Chinese consumers are better off choosing similar domestic platforms.

Accessibility from China

The website is currently directly accessible on the Chinese internet, no VPN/proxy is required.
