You must know what
“Harrods” is. That’s the upmarket department store in the U.K. Their self-style
tea cafe “Harrods Tea Bar” has opened in Japan, two branches in Tokyo and one
in Osaka. All of them are in popular Japanese department stores and really
small only with several seats. So, it looks like many order a takeaway. Their
tea menu varies including several kinds of their original flavored teas and ice
cream cone with using their popular tea. The company says that they are
planning to open around 50 branches throughout the country.
Japan is a coffee
country in terms of the market, and self-style “coffee” cafes are everywhere
while tea ones are still rare. Is it tea's turn to overtake coffee and pass it up? We will see.
