Key Coffee Yokohama 1920 Founders' Blend

Key Coffee was founded in Fukutomi-cho, Yokohama on August 24, 1920 as "Coffee Merchant Kimura Shoten. This time, we have prepared a coffee blend inspired by the taste loved by many people in Yokohama, a port town where many importers gathered and Western food culture spread.

Based on Brazilian coffee, which was widely distributed at that time, Ethiopia, with its gorgeous aroma, is blended into the coffee blend to create a harmonious taste with a soft and fruity aroma. The coffee is also roasted slightly deeper than usual so that it can be enjoyed as "milk coffee," which was popular in the milk halls that led to the popularization of coffee as a "beverage," and goes well with sugar and milk.

The label features a nautical design and a blue frame decorated with an image of a port town. It is said to have a classical taste for coffee lovers not only in Yokohama but also all over Japan.

It will not be sold at "KEY'S CAFE-CLASSE-" and "CRAFT SHARE-ROASTERY LOCKEYER COFFEE".
