Kissaten blend: common questions

What is Kissaten blend?

Slow-dripped dark roast from a traditional coffee shop. It is listed in the TasteBridge Japan guide as a coffee.

How much does Kissaten blend cost in Japan?

Expect the mid-range band: roughly US$8–20. Prices move with the city and the venue, so treat this as a planning figure rather than a fixed menu price.

Is Kissaten blend vegetarian?

Kissaten blend is not tagged vegetarian in our data, because the tag is aimed at dishes rather than drinks. A plain black coffee, tea or fruit drink usually contains nothing animal-based, but milk, cream, honey, egg white or a pre-mixed powder can change that, so ask what goes in the cup.

Where can I try Kissaten blend?

Our index lists it across Japan, so it is not tied to one address. Ask locally which version is served at breakfast, lunch or late evening, because the same name can cover different presentations.
