This Tokyo's Coffee Town Changed How We See Japanese Coffee | Life in Japan | Vlog 607

We spent the morning exploring Kiyosumi-Shirakawa, one of Tokyo's best-known coffee neighbourhoods, to better understand why Tokyo has become one of the world's great coffee cities. Along the way, we discovered that Japanese coffee culture is far more varied than we expected—from modern specialty cafés and working roasteries to a traditional kissaten tucked away in a quiet alley. We wrapped up the morning with a peaceful walk through Kiyosumi Gardens, where we reflected on our coffee discoveries while letting the caffeine wear off, before easing back into the everyday moments that filled the rest of the week. 📍 IN THIS EPISODE: 1:34 Blue Bottle Coffee 3:01 Allpress Espresso (the roastery) 4:19 Koffee Mameya — fully booked 6:24 Cafe Kokun — the kissaten surprise 8:00 Kiyosumi Gardens — the reflection 12:12 Daily life in Tokyo #LifeInJapan #TokyoCoffee #japanvlog Vlogging life abroad - the adventures, the errands and everything in between.
