December 20 (Sat.) from 16:00

The Coffeeshop, Daichi Hagiwara

You can tell the difference! Coffee Drinking Comparison Experience

Coffee tastes different depending on the region, variety, and production process.

The way to enjoy specialty coffee is to feel and taste the differences.

Some people may think, "I wonder if I can taste the difference between coffees...," but don't worry. The difference in taste of good specialty coffees is so clear that anyone can feel it.

In this seminar, you will have the opportunity to experience two different types of coffee: one from three different countries with the same degree of roasting, and one from the same country with three different degrees of roasting. By comparing two factors that greatly affect the taste of coffee, the country of origin and the degree of roasting, we hope you will experience the unique flavor of specialty coffees.

We hope you will find your favorite coffee beans by tasting a total of 6 different coffees!
