Arise Coffee Roasters
Kiyosumi, Tokyo
Arise Coffee Roasters is a tiny roastery opened in 2013 by Taiju Hayashi and hung with skateboard decks, where around ten single origins are roasted in the shop and poured to order. It's one of the small independents that made Kiyosumi-Shirakawa Tokyo's coffee district.
Insider tip
There's hardly any seating, so take the cup and walk it to Kiyosumi Gardens. Ask which beans came out of the roaster most recently.
