Umami Mart imports high-quality kitchen and barware from Japan for all your eating and drinking pleasures.
Umami Mart sprouted into this world as an international food + drink blog in 2007. Over the years, it has grown into a Japanese kitchen and barware importing business, based in Oakland, CA. Functional design, quality, and service are all a part of the Umami Mart philosophy, reflected in every facet of the business.
The Oakland shop, opened in 2012, is a curation of bar tools and glassware from Japan, as well as a bottle shop dedicated to sake, shochu, Japanese whisky, and beer. In 2019 we opened a cozy bar in the back of our retail shop – a hub for many events, community gatherings, and beloved regulars.
Since the outbreak of Covid, we have closed our Oakland shop temporarily, but are open for online orders and curbside pick up. We miss you all and can't wait to reopen our shop and see you in real life! If you have any questions, please drop us a line!
