Colombia Alexander Montealegre

Kurasu is a specialty coffee roaster and taste curator based in Kyoto, Japan, bridging Japanese coffee culture with the rest of the world. They roast a range from light to dark, offering single origins like Colombia Nestor Lasso and Kenya Gatomboya AB alongside their beloved House Blend reborn as single-origin Fairfield. Their monthly coffee subscription explores Japanese roasters—each delivery a passport to a different producer's approach. Beyond beans, Kurasu stocks curated brewing gear (Origami, Hario, Kalita) and Kyoto-inspired tableware, reflecting a philosophy that coffee is about craft and ceremony as much as flavor. They run a cafe in Kyoto and ship worldwide, making Japanese coffee accessible wherever you brew.
