The Münch - Yao

I had such a special experience to visit today. it was strongly recommended by a friend, and when I arrived, the master was very welcoming. he asked about my coffee preferences and came back with various drinks for my friends and I. my espresso came into a cup he explained was from the Edo period, 350 years old. it was different than any other coffee I had before. he explained that he used 150 grams of coffee beans for my only serving. he also told my group how he had the same coffee he served me in a barrel that matured since 1995 and created something like an ice-cream coffee. I tried a spoon of it and went into the sky. the whole experience - which waited to let the coffee come to room temperature before he let him drop out of the barrel and knew that it was the only coffee as he was in the world - was amazing. the master is charming and very warm, I cannot wait to visit again.

The best coffee I ever had. Ask for the signature only in Japan . The coffee is served in Baccarat glass and it is served in cold. Its taste is so deep, aromatic, and powerful. it is totally my pleasure to have chance drinking it.

I tried a spoon of coffee that has been aging since the year I was born! Aromatic. Full of flavor. The frozen cheese cake they do was very rich and went really well with the coffee. The master there was so friendly that I decided to rate this place. I don’t like to rate places but the master asked me to and I thought that was cute lol

This cafe was pretty far outside the city in a suburban neighborhood and a little bit of a walk but very much worth it! Tanaka who runs the cafe alone is open crazy hours from 6am to 3am so you can make time no matter even if you're in Osaka only for a day. AND YOU SHOULD! The experience is amazing and he will tell you the history of his craft as well as the history of the items in his shop from the beautiful French and Japanese cups to the tube sound system (amazing Aretha Franklin Jazz songs playing). He is very knowledgeable all of it. We had the 3 courses, the first was a cup of coffee made with his signature brewing method with the three hour brew time made prior. The coffee is undoubatly strong but smooth until the end. The second cup he made while we were in the shop and it took about 50 minutes. It did not feel that long though as we spoke the whole time. The method is very detailed and slow but worth it for the cup after. Surprisingly sweet as well with his blend if beans. However, what will truly blow you away is the 23 year old coffee he has aged in a barrel. The coffee is AMAZING. I have never tasted anything like it before. It is sweet and takes on the taste of the original alcohol that was created in the barrel with a strong undertones of blueberries. Even the smell is quite sweet and fragrant. There really are not words to describe it fully. If you visit Osaka you need to visit this cafe and make sure you get all three courses of coffee. Great coffee, great experience, amazing host, and impeccable first class customer service. Tanaka San even drove us back to the train station after because it was raining!

Very good coffee and services. Very humble and friendly owner that told a bit of stories about his store, himself and his wares. Unforgettable experience! Tried the ¥100,000 coffee and it tasted like wine but without alcohol. Also tried the strongest coffee that tasted like 100x espresso mixed and a creamed coffee that is like jelly but still smooth with a pleasent taste. Additionally, the entire shop is also like an antique shop, where each cup has its own history. Definitely will come back again once if we ever stop by again!
