This coffee is sourced from the Dehong region in Yunnan, China, grown at an altitude of 1,700 meters. It is a Catimor P4 (7963) variety processed using a yeast fermentation washed method. The flavor profile is characterized by notes of peachy rose tea and juicy lychee, with subtle accents of fresh butter and Chinese tea. It offers an elegant, aromatic quality reminiscent of white wine with a clean finish.
Founded in 2020 in Sumida-ku by Machi Kodama and Sho Takanaka, ou·bai·tou·ri takes its name from a four-character Japanese idiom (桜梅桃李) meaning cherry blossom, plum, peach, and apricot, an expression that each should be valued for its own character. Kodama won the 2023 1st Crack Coffee Challenge roasting competition. The roastery focuses on light roasts with fruit-forward profiles, sourcing seasonal lots and emphasizing the inherent flavors of each origin.
