"Coffee rice is being cooked. The fragrant coffee scent from the overflowing steam has colored the room." ... What the hell is going on !?

On January 13th, a tweet about "coffee rice " posted on Twitter (@ akira5423 ) by Mr. Kawashima of comedy combination Kirin has become a hot topic. Even though the smell of Ayashii is floating from "coffee rice", the keyword "driver" also appears and I do not understand the situation well.


According to Mr. Kawashima's tweet, when I got on a taxi at the end of work, the driver said "Thank you for your hard work" and handed me a hot canned coffee (& Umaibo and candy). When I was surprised at the deliciousness, he said, " The rice cooked with that coffee is delicious . Please try it if you like." He gave me a second cup of coffee (& two delicious sticks).


Mr. Kawashima immediately practiced coffee and rice. About that, "Coffee rice is being cooked. The scent of fragrant coffee began to color the room from the overflowing steam. At that moment, the air purifier sensed it and made a loud noise to make the gauge bright red and do my best. I'm looking forward to cooking it quickly. "

And the cooked coffee rice says, "The taste is lighter than it looks and it has a savory taste like cooked with roasted green tea, but the aftertaste makes the astringency crisp. In other words, it is insanely delicious." It seems that only sesame salt will be sprinkled quickly.

In fact, the taxi that Mr. Kawashima boarded was also called a "phantom taxi." There are lots of sweets and drinks in the car, and they serve customers.

I'm not sure how the driver made coffee rice, but as a result of trying all kinds of coffee, he said that he could only cook deliciously with this coffee. Regarding coffee, "I have never seen it at a convenience store or a vending machine, so if I want to replace it, I just have to wait for that taxi again. It's a phantom, " says Kawashima. If the taxi was "phantom", couldned coffee was also "phantom"?

By the way, the coffee in question seems to be sold by a UCC group company. It is a product bearing the name of the long-established Italian cafe "Antico Cafe Greco". I have never seen it sold. It is not listed in the manufacturer's website lineup and is out of stock on the mail order site. I don't know if it's backordered or discontinued, but I just hope it doesn't affect the "phantom taxi" service.

Coffee rice cooked with "phantom coffee" received from "phantom taxi". I also want to eat it someday.
