When you think of world-renowned coffee destinations, Japan might not be the first place you\u2019d think of. You\u2019d more likely associate coffee with the espressos of Italy or the lattes of Australia. But to miss out on the vibrant, imaginative, and thriving coffee culture in Japan would be a big mistake. Not only is Japanese coffee culture flourishing throughout every corner of Japan<\/strong>, it can also be extremely creative and, of course, expertly made. Journey through the variety of beverages found in Japan, and see for yourself how it differs to the coffee made in your country. Welcome to the world of coffee in Japan.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Coffee<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

All good cafes must have good coffee. While the bog-standard coffee you can get from your local 7-Eleven, or with meals in restaurants is extremely bitter for my tastes, if you know where to look, Japan can take you on a coffee journey like no other<\/strong>. From the bean selection to the process and the atmosphere, you can have complete control over your cup of coffee. And with the diverse and ever-changing drink menu items including sakura (\u3055\u304f\u3089\uff09<\/a>flavoured lattes, nitro-coffees, and more, you have every excuse to increase your caffeine intake.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Beans <\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Every good cup of Joe starts with a good bean (\u8c46,\u307e\u3081). In Japanese cafes, you almost always get to pick your choice of bean for your coffee<\/strong>, depending on what kind of notes or flavours sound appealing to you. In the best cafes, this selection can be vast. They can include a range of speciality coffees and blends ethically sourced from a wide range of countries and regions. Not only that, but they’re forever changing, and sometimes offer seasonal blends<\/strong>, in keeping with the Japanese love of changing seasons. Perhaps you enjoy fruitiness and acidity in your coffee, or perhaps you\u2019re looking for notes of chocolate and orange. You can really hone your preferences by trying something new every time. That is the beauty of Japanese coffee culture. You can really personalise your coffee and tailor it to what you really love.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n
