Celebrate Spring with Rokumei Coffee's Sakura Fair
Rokumei Coffee, a specialty coffee shop renowned for its self-roasted blends from Nara, Japan, is thrilled to announce its annual
Sakura Fair, running from
March 12 to mid-April 2026. This seasonal event features the exclusive
Sakura Blend, a rich offering that embodies the essence of spring, along with delicate sweets and specially curated products in delightful gift bags. Visitors are encouraged to explore both the physical store and online shopping channels to experience this limited-time offering.
A Taste of Spring: Sakura Blend
The
Sakura Blend combines two Ethiopian coffee varietals—one processed naturally and the other washed—to deliver a fragrant cup reminiscent of blooming cherry blossoms. The floral aroma is striking and fills the air as the coffee brews, providing an inviting experience. Upon tasting, the blend reveals a silky, sweet mouthfeel akin to apricots, gradually transitioning to a light cherry-like fruitiness as it cools. This creation serves not only as a beverage but as an embodiment of spring's renewal.
Unique Offerings in the Coffee Bag
Among the various options available at the fair is the rare
Guatemala Buena Vista Malawi Geisha, selected for the coffee gift bag. This clean, flavorful coffee brings to mind elegant tea-time flavors with a refreshing citrus acidity and a lingering sweet finish. As it cools, the layers of flavor deepen, reminiscent of the complexities found in fine Darjeeling tea, setting it apart as a luxurious indulgence perfect for special occasions.
