ACID out of Tokyo

Some coffee experiences have a special place in my heart. ACID is one of those.

Last summer, we visited many shops in Tokyo and ACID is the one I still think about all the time. It's intimate (maybe 6 seats) yet approachable and casual. A place where you'll have a wonderful conversation about coffee, whether you're a big coffee nerd or not. 

A big part of ACID's appeal is the vast selection. And the execution of this is beautiful: each pour over only uses 8g of coffee, so you can sample quite a few without hitting a caffeine ceiling. Of the 4 coffees we tried, every single one was fantastic. We went home with beans that were also great. Needless to say, can't wait to try the following! -Matthias

Our main feature will be a pretty funky co-ferment. We've chosen the below to round out the experience and try a little bit of everything.

All ACID add-ons will come in original packaging! Click through the pictures to see what the packaging will look like. 

The rest of the pictures are from my family's visit last year.

Honduras El Nacimiento, Pacas - Washed

Plum, stone fruit, orange

Described as a daily drinker and "the owner's favorite."

Adaura PC Lot 5, Geisha - Honey (Panama)

Jasmine, orange blossom, white lily

Adaura (Finca Lorayne) won first place in the most prestigious Best of Panama Washed category in 2024. This will be our first time offering one of their geishas. 

El Diviso Floral Symphony, Ombligon - Anaerobic Natural (Colombia)

Haskap*, blueberry, floral perfume

Ombligon fans rejoice! This is a competition grade lot from Nestor Lasso. 

*if you, like me, aren't quite sure what a haskap is: Haskap berries (also called honeyberries) taste like a tangy, bold cross between a blueberry and a raspberry, with distinct overtones of black currant, blackberry, or rhubarb

About Add-Ons

Our add-ons are offerings that are harder to come by in the US and that are coffees we would usually add on ourselves when placing our monthly orders. Add-ons come with the same brew card and recipe as everything else.
