I mused once again why I chose to go to Ethiopia out of the many producing countries.

Being able to visit Ethiopia, the land where coffee originated, made me almost giddy with happiness.

After 9 years of actively trying to increase awareness of just how delicious coffee can be, I wonder how spending time in Ethiopia will change my personal values and my thoughts on working in this industry.

I hope that I can share this experience with other roasters from around the world, and of course, producers like Wete Ambela and Moplaco.

What coffee means to us

Coffee has shaped my life in so many different ways. It has created an opportunity for me to start a business in my hometown, Kyoto, to build an amazing team of 40 globally and a community of thousands we have fostered a relationship with through our shops and online store. 

What coffee means to the people who drink it and myself. 

Do the producers appreciate and know the significance of what their fruit has brought us? Even if they did, it would not be enough. Let us take part in sharing our experience and gratitude. What you have produced has ultimately created us. We are the fruits of your labor.

New Beginning

Rather than finding a special taste, 

I want to share special moments.
