Tasse Coffee Roastery Tokyo

A Hong Kong-born roaster brings out the aroma of the beans

Owner Yuen Wing's philosophy is that "the quality of coffee is determined 50% by the quality of the green beans themselves, 30% by roasting, and 20% by extraction." He built a career as a digital app designer in Hong Kong, but became engrossed in the world of specialty coffee, and moved to Tokyo, where there are many opportunities for conferences and seminars, and began roasting coffee there.

When the store first opened, the lineup was centered around light roasts, but as they responded to customer needs, they began to offer more dark roasts, and they now offer a wide range of processing methods, including natural, washed, and anaerobic. All beans sold are accompanied by a sign that describes the characteristics of the flavor and aroma, and the flavor is explained in a friendly manner.

The company is also focusing on education, having established a school in Hong Kong where students can obtain international coffee qualifications.
