Kyoto | Must-Try Coffee in Kyoto ☕️

Two coffee shops in Kyoto that you absolutely must try—highly recommended! 1️⃣ Stumptown Coffee Roasters This is the coffee shop I visited twice in one day while in Kyoto. 🌸 It's located in the lobby of the Ace Hotel, where I stayed. Their lattes are made with medium-light roast beans, which have a unique taste reminiscent of fermented tofu. 🌸 When I paid, I was a few yen short, and the owner just gave me a discount instead of asking for the exact change. How cool is that? 📍 〒604-8185 Kyoto, Nakagyo Ward, Kurumayacho, 245-2 Ace Hotel Kyoto 1F 2️⃣ BLUE BOTTLE COFFEE (Heian Shrine) This is the most beautiful Blue Bottle store I've ever seen. It's perfect for taking photos📷—the Japanese style is so photogenic. 🌸 The coffee here is truly delicious. I'm not sure why it tastes better than the ones I've had in Hong Kong and Shenzhen. Maybe it's the beans or the milk? 📍 Nanzen-ji Sogawacho 64 (6-minute walk from Keage Station on the Subway Tozai Line) #JapanTravelTips 🌿 #Japan 🌇 #Kyoto 🌸 #KyotoTrip 🎫
