Akai-mi Blend


The first encounter of Akai-mi coffee!
Why don’t we start with the house blend has their name?

Impression
Medium body, light texture, mild flavor.  Light lemony acidity with apricot like sweetness, nutty and chocolaty flavor, with moderate and short aftertaste.  Well balanced as well as harmonized round flavor, mellow but airy touch coffee fits any time of a day/yr.

Based on Columbia Andes condor, Akai-mi blend has clear flavor with nutty sweetness and depth added by other beans. 




  Akai-mi coffee hits the center.  This is the coffee roaster to stop my drifting in the pool of coffee roasters!  “Coffee beans are fresh fruits which has own unique flavors”, said the owner.  For him, roasting is the process to enhance and to bring out each uniqueness and character of beans derive from environments they have been surrounded.  Akai-mi coffee carries so called specialty beans but his focus seems not estates but region or countries. 
  Single/straight beans are selected from countries where sound quite familiar as core coffee production countries, such as Tanzania, El Salvador.             


 It’s always the best pleasure to meet people have enthusiasm and commitment in coffee world, and more than pleasure to talk /listen to their story about coffee.  The owner of Akai-mi coffee appears quiet guy with tender smile; however, once he breaks the ice, his words start weaving together his knowledge and enthusiasm to show the world of “Akai-mi Coffee”.  Balance of flavor, created by roasting and beans, hits the center together with the owner’s talk.
