I have to thank the owner of Tsuji coffee in Kasaoka for sending me to Blue Mountain Coffee Shop. This coffee paradise is so well hidden in the depth of Kasaoka that I would have probably never stumbled upon it without his precious help.
Honky Tonk: what an awful name for a coffee shop. Japan is the land of shops christen with the weirdest names, so if you look beyond the name, you will find an original coffee shop right in Okayama.
I found Bankoku coffee roaster by pure luck. I parked my car to visit a furniture shop and I saw the bright green coffee sign in the distance.
My curiosity was rewarded by a fragrant and well stocked coffee roasting shop, the type of shop I had been dreaming about since I arrived in Japan.
I have a feeling that a number of great coffee shop in Japan are often located in the most unlikely places and Cafe Tikal is no exception to the rule.
This friendly coffee shop is hidden behind the gate of the Kogawa family residence in the castle town of Hagi in Yamaguchi Prefecture.
Coffee is addictive and finding a place to drink some is even more addictive.
I’ve drank coffee pretty much every where I ever been and my last visit to Osaka brought me to Link Handmade Roast Coffee just off the popular Shinsaibashi.
