coffee

If you want to have the best coffee you’ve ever had in your life while you’re in Japan, Glitch coffee should be on your shortlist. I had an ETH(iopian) geisha. It was really sweet and fruity to the point of tasting almost like a juice. What really makes this coffee special is the carbonic maceration processing of the beans. This is an experimental processing method inspired by winemaking. Carbon dioxide is pumped into the fermentation tanks with the coffee cherries, flushing out oxygen. Unlike traditional fermentation, where microorganisms on the outside of the cherries break down the sugars, in carbonic maceration, fermentation occurs from the inside out within the coffee cherry itself. The CO2 rich environment promotes intracellular breakdown of pectins and sugars. Because the cherries are sealed, the volatile aromatic compounds don’t escape resulting in more concentrated flavors. 

I’m visiting the Osaka cafe but they have 2 in Tokyo and one in Nagoya as well.
