The Tokyo Coffee Festival is a product of the unexpectedly long history of Japanese coffee. The country’s first coffee shop, the Kahichakan, opened in Tokyo in 1888 and quickly became a mainstay for cosmopolitan gentleman. Third wave coffee, which only took off in Japan around 2012, is still a relatively new movement — and one that still needs some nurturing. Although “Tokyo Coffee Festival” might now be a misnomer, one of the event’s strengths is that it brings together consumers and industry professionals from across the country; in one place you can experience the full spectrum of Japanese coffee blends.
