ABOUT US
3 Blue is a Kyoto-based curation brand dedicated to discovering and sharing distinctive coffee tools from around the world.
We partner with independent makers, artisans, and emerging design studios to introduce equipment that embodies thoughtful craft, cultural narrative, and genuine functionality.
From hand-crafted kettles and bespoke drippers to rare sensory tools and experimental brewing devices, our selection celebrates the diversity of global coffee culture. We believe that equipment is not only a tool, but a way to explore ideas, aesthetics, and personal ritual.
The name 3 bleu represents the three shades of youth and vitality in nature —
mountain green, river jade, and sky blue.
It reflects our philosophy of curiosity, renewal, and a gentle yet forward-looking spirit.
Rooted in Kyoto, guided by global perspective, we bring meaningful coffee objects to those who brew with intention and taste with imagination.
We curate tools. We tell stories. We invite exploration.
