Fake reviews removed

Opened May 2023 in a 130-year-old former sake warehouse lovingly renovated into a specialty coffee roastery in the castle town. Traditional Hitoyoshi Kijima wooden horse crafts adorn the space; tatami seating upstairs. Unique drinks like Hitoyoshi matcha latte and charcoal latte are popular.

Visitors praise the stunning renovation of the 130-year sake warehouse. Drinking a matcha latte surrounded by traditional local crafts is described as special. Travelers call it 'the most stylish spot in Hitoyoshi.' February 2025 visit confirmed, currently operating.
