Hey folks,

Thanks for being patient with us as we had to take some time off for personal reasons but we're back! Today's episode is all about the budding coffee culture in Japan and the early stages of coffee growing in Okinawa! We're diving deep into the history of a kissaten, what contributions Japan has made to specialty coffee, and which anime we like best! We hope you enjoy!
