Kisaten Coffee shops are a blast to the past. Old coffee shops opened during the Showa period when European coffee culture was introduced to Japan. And the Japanese ran with it! (Like everything else they do). Created a culture of its own in Japan. Collection Porcelin cups decorate the shelves. Depending on where you go, a customer is assigned a cup from the impression you give the "master" (shop owner). Or each coffee is drank in a specific cup assigned by that shop's "master". Each has its own unique personality and each prides itself on their "house blend". Being that it takes incredible skill and experience to be able to make a well balanced coffee blend. Each blend is matched to the shop's personality and palate. Going to one will be different from the next. This one is an one of the OG Kisaten located in back alleys of posh Ginza. #coffee #streetsneats #kisatencafe #ginza #tokyo #coffeeholic #coffeehouse #coffeeculture #streetphotography #leicaphotography #leicam9p #leicam #l...
