Raw Sugar Roast

It's more fun if drinkers remember the standards

How do you enjoy specialty coffee? Yuya Kosakada, who worked at Paul Bassett and Glitch Coffee before going independent, says, "It starts with getting to know the characteristics of the producing region. I believe that the taste of Ethiopia is the standard for everything, so the first step is to get to know the taste of Ethiopian natural and washed coffee." The former is likened to berries and grapes, and the latter to oranges and citrus.

"In terms of wine, if you know Pinot Noir from Burgundy, you can also appreciate Napa Valley." These two wines are always on the list at this store. You can't go wrong if you learn the taste at this store, which strictly adheres to the definition of specialty.

Once you have established the standard, you can enjoy Colombia's specially processed beans, which he told me have been "pretty interesting in recent years!"

The spacious garage-like interior seats 80 people, including the second floor. The sound of the records is also pleasant.
