New Seasonal Delights from Sarutahiko Coffee to Savor This Winter

Discover the Delightful New Offerings from Sarutahiko Coffee

Sarutahiko Coffee, a specialty coffee shop based in Shibuya, Tokyo, has exciting news for coffee lovers! On January 13, 2026, they will unveil an evolved version of their popular dessert drink "jellatte," now enhanced to include a new flavor combination of coffee and pear. This innovative drink promises to deliver a medley of textures and a deep flavor profile. Not only will the "jellatte" be reintroduced, but patrons can also look forward to limited-time drinks, such as the refreshing "Yuzu Cacao Latte" and the luxurious "Valentine's Blend."

What is the jellatte?

The "jellatte" is a creative and visually pleasing dessert beverage that showcases layers of coffee, fruit, jelly, and milk. Its name, a blend of "jelly" and "latte," captures the essence of both elements. Sarutahiko Coffee intends for the "jellatte" to become a flagship item, with additional variations and seasonal flavors to come in the future.

In its previous incarnation, customers enjoyed mixing the layers for a delightful experience. However, with this notable upgrade, each sip is designed to highlight the distinct flavors of the ingredients. The drink features a refreshing frozen pear-flavored milk base, accented with a rich coffee jelly that adds a chewy texture. The entire experience is further uplifted with a hint of cherry flavor and a touch of acidity that provides a light and invigorating finish. Take a moment to immerse yourself in this extraordinary pairing that is bound to elicit feelings of "jealousy" due to its incredible deliciousness.

Seasonal Refreshments: Yuzu Cacao Latte

Another intriguing addition to Sarutahiko Coffee's winter menu is the "Yuzu Cacao Latte." This drink harmonizes the robust flavor of coffee with the refreshing citrus notes of yuzu and the rich taste of cacao. Expect a delightful balance between refreshing zest and mild bitterness.

On the first sip, the chocolate's depth mingles with the creamy texture of milk, while the fresh fragrances of yuzu and mandarin waft through on the finish. The inclusion of yuzu complements the chocolate beautifully, creating a light and enjoyable drinking experience rather than a heaviness that often accompanies chocolate beverages.

Valentine's Blend: A Warm Embrace for the Heart

For those preparing for the season of love, Sarutahiko Coffee presents the "Valentine's Blend." This blend is designed to evoke a rich, yet approachable, flavor profile that pairs exquisitely with cacao and chocolate. It boasts a gentle sweetness reminiscent of chocolate, achieved through a careful roasting blend of high-quality beans from Panama and Nicaragua.

What truly makes this blend special is the addition of Colombian beans, which provide subtle notes of apricot and peach, intertwined with hints of lemongrass and spices that enhance the aftertaste. The result is a current of rich flavors that melt in your mouth, creating the perfect warm comfort for the chilly Valentine season.
