[Asakusa] Specialty Coffee Shop "ASAKUSA ROAST" to Open on September 10

Asakusa Rokku has long been lined with entertainment attractions and theaters, and it remains a popular area for strolling, full of old downtown (shitamachi) atmosphere. On September 10, a new coffee spot, "ASAKUSA ROAST," will open in a corner of this neighborhood.

Its greatest feature is its commitment to in-house roasting: beans are carefully roasted on a roaster installed inside the shop. Visitors can enjoy the fragrant aroma of roasting and watch the beans being roasted live.

The shop serves light-roast coffee, promising a cup that brings out the beans' natural flavor and bright acidity. Its original sweets are also not to be missed, and you can probably enjoy combinations carefully designed to pair well with the coffee.

The location is ideal for taking a break during your Asakusa sightseeing, or as a starting or ending point for a stroll. As a new spot where you can casually enjoy the world of specialty coffee made with locally sourced ingredients, its future developments are likely to draw attention.

On opening day, you may see many coffee lovers coming to get a freshly roasted cup. Asakusa is about to gain yet another new attraction.
