Karuizawa, Nagano, Japan｜MzCOFFEE Labo

Very cozy coffee shop with the best tasting coffee brewed to perfection (his manual espresso is a real treat). The owner roasts his own coffee and really puts his magic into every cup! Easily the best coffee I’ve had in Japan!

Darling coffee booth in which the owner hand presses every cup. Definitely worth the wait! The rustic atmosphere both inside and outside the shop contribute so much to the charm.

A real hidden gem. Best coffee I've tasted in a long while, and I'm from Melbourne! It's an experience on itself to see the care and expertise that goes into each cup of coffee. The end result is simply sublime. All that experience and effort sourcing and perfecting the right balance to make a real masterpiece. My 5 year old was equally pleased to have his wish of ice cream satisfied by the kind master.
