About

At MTN WTR, we're more than just a company—we're explorers on a mission to bring the finest water from Mt. Fuji to the world. We’re dedicated to delivering pristine hydration from Japan’s iconic mountain to the U.S. and beyond. Every drop is naturally distilled over 50 years, filtered through volcanic rock, and bottled at the source for the purest taste. MTN WTR is more than water; it’s a journey that blends nature’s purity with our commitment to quality and sustainability. Join us in elevating hydration, one bottle at a time.

Founding Story

Our story begins with our Founder and CEO, Masa Kinemuchi, a native of Japan who grew up surrounded by the country's highest-quality water sources. His family's two-century legacy in rice farming instilled in him a profound respect for the purity and importance of water, not just for agriculture but as a source of life and health.

After relocating to the U.S., Masa was struck by the absence of the water he grew up with in Japan. He realized that nothing could compare to the pure Japanese spring water he had taken for granted back home. This longing for the quality and taste of Mt. Fuji's water inspired Masa to take action.

Masa's inspiration soon found Takashi Nakamura, a seasoned expert in Japan's domestic water distribution and logistics. Nakamura shared Masa's passion for bringing Japan's best to the world. Together, they formed MTN WTR Co in 2017 to fill a void in the U.S. market. Their dedication led to the successful first product launch of MTN WTR in 2022, providing the first Japanese naturally alkaline, premium spring water from Mt. Fuji.

Japan has an abundance of wonderful products and content that it can take pride in. For over 20 years, Masa has been showcasing these to the world. While many Japanese products are widely accepted globally, Masa has always questioned why Japanese water isn't consumed worldwide. Delicious water is essential for making great sushi, ramen, and sake.
