Mel Coffee Roasters
Nestled in Nishi-ku Shinmachi, minutes away from Osaka's bustling Shinsaibashi district, lies Mel Coffee Roasters, a quaint coffee shop spanning just over 100 square feet. Despite its small size, Mel has garnered international acclaim, ranking 3rd in "The 50 Best Coffee Shops In The World" and 2nd in "The 50 Best Coffee Shops in Asia" by Big 7 Travel. Renowned for its roasting expertise, the shop houses vintage Probat roasters dating back to 1968 and 1960, exuding a nostalgic charm.
Patrons are greeted by the rich aroma of coffee upon arrival, with no indoor seating available; instead, customers can savor their meticulously crafted brews on long benches outside. Mel's distinctive roasted flavor, inspired by Melbourne's coffee scene, captivates visitors, leaving an indelible mark. Owner Masahiko Fumimoto and his wife, both Melbourne expats, draw on their Australian coffee experiences to create a unique, unforgettable coffee haven in Asia.

Ethiopian Coffee Delights
A Symphony of Flavors and Future Innovations
Ethiopian coffee continues to captivate with its annual surprises, showcasing a diverse range of flavors influenced by variations in cherry color, ripeness, and drying methods. This washed coffee boasts citrusy notes of orange and tangerine laced with a delicate hint of jasmine, offering a clean and refreshing taste. In contrast, the naturally processed coffee presents a sweet and juicy profile, highlighting the cherries' ripeness for a smooth flavor experience. Whether enjoyed at home or in a café, these beans promise a delightful sensory journey. Stay tuned for the upcoming introduction of Ethiopian honey processing, adding another layer of excitement to this rich coffee tradition.
