The first Starbucks store in Japan opened on Matsuya-dori in Ginza, Tokyo on August 2, 1996. The first customer's order was a "double tall latte", a large cup of hot latte. On that day, the highest temperature in Tokyo was 32.4 degrees Celsius.
22 years later, August 2, 2018. Starbucks Ginza Matsuya-dori store held a small event to celebrate its 22nd anniversary. "22nd Anniversary" is also on the blackboard inside the store.
From the menu to the receipt, the notation is old-fashioned, and you will miss the time. I was also invited to a quiz where some customizations would be free when I lined up.
At the counter, I ordered a double tall latte just like the customer 22 years ago. It's simple, but the milk and coffee are strong and chewy.
The foam is soft on the tongue and has a relaxing taste. It's a lot, but it was nice to drink in a cool store over time.
