Kobe's port introduced Brazilian coffee beans to Japan for the first time in the late 1800s. Since then, Japan has become the world's third-largest importer of coffee beans, half of which pass through Kobe's gates. 
The people of Kobe are known for their discerning tastes and unwavering demand. The port city is home to Japan's oldest and most loved coffee shops, whose uncompromising brews bring guests from across the country. 
Nichibei Coffee, founded in 1932, has worked hard to meet these high standards. 
With a history spanning nearly a century, Nichibei Coffee has developed coffees that suit the needs of the times, and never lost its passion. Today's Nichibei Coffee Co. was born from a collaboration with American coffee company, Wood Bros., which led to its proprietary "Gold" brand coffee. The company's full team of coffee professionals carefully oversee every part of the process, proudly calling themselves the "Kobe Coffee Meisters".
