Kyoto Karasuma Hexagon Store | Starbucks Coffee Japan
http://www.starbucks.co.jp/store/concept/kyoto_rokkaku/

Arrived Starbucks Coffee Kyoto Karasuma hexagon shop. Although it is an ordinary store as seen from the main street, this shop can enter from the temple behind it.


The back of the store is the historic temple Hexagon temple built by Prince Shotoku.


Immediately into the temple. If you go straight ahead ......


On the left is Jizo and entrance of the building.


Hexagon temple is reflected in a glass-enclosed mirror, and it is a special store overlooking Hexagonal Hall from the inside of the shop.


Entering the store from the entrance is a normal Starbucks ... ...


There are hexagonal pillars conscious of Hakkakudo, and looking at the table from the seat by the window ... and ...


You can see Hexagon temple.


When entering the store, Western style paintings ......


It is a tapestry of kimono by a dyeing house living in Kyoto, Kotaro Omura, which is displayed in a hexagonal pillar, which changes with each season.


Looking at the store for special goods ......


Discovering area limited tumbler / mug.


I will immediately order new items and drink at the window seat.


The seat is a single sofa.


When you sit on the sofa you can see the garden and the hexagon at the window through the window, but the trees are high like a fence so it is hard to see Hexagon temple a bit when you sit down.


The new item is roasted almond latte ice hot from the left, roasted almond flapcino. All ordered in tall size.


First off from roasted almond latte of ice.


Roasted almond latte has been cooked with almond flavored whipped cream, roasted almond slices and coffee sugar coffee beans.


There is a roasted almond sauce at the bottom, and a clerk explained that "Please mix when you eat." I'll try to eat it from the cream portion.


If you scoop out the cream part and eat it, the almond flavored whipped cream roasted almond slice almonds taste extensively in the mouth, although the sweetness is slight. Grinded coffee beans add bitterness, a little adult flavor.


When mixed with almond sauce, it adds a fragrant flavor of roasted almond sauce with caramel flavor to latte. The color of almond sauce is caramel color, but it is mainly taste of almonds. Almond flavored whipped cream and roasted almond slices are also included, although almonds are made, the taste of coffee and almonds does not cancel each other, and it stands out neatly.


Then the hot roasted almond latte. Ice roasted almond latte and topping are the same, and the ice latte part is hot latte using form milk.


Although almond cream is melting in warm form milk, the topping that is on is the same.


When I drink it, the proportion of milk is larger than the roasted almond latte of ice, the almond cream · almond sauce is melting out into foam milk, so it feels stronger the taste of almond than the taste of coffee, like hot milk of almond flavor . Because it is not very coffee, it is also recommended for those who do not usually drink coffee.


Lastly roasted almonds Frappuccino. The topping is the same as almond latte, the latte part is coffee flapcino


If you scoop up the part of the cream and the part of the coffee flapcino and eat it, the sweetness of almond cream is also added to the coffee flapcino, which makes you feel the sweetest of the three strongest. Because it has a strong sweetness, it seems to be able to drink with a feeling of dessert with almond taste. The impression that the taste of almond is better than the taste of coffee.


It has become the coldest item with 3 items, and roasted almond sauce will precipitate even if mixed, so it seems better to mix frequently.


The price of Ammondorate is short 430 yen for both ice and hot, 470 yen for Toll, 510 yen for Grande, 550 yen for Venti, the price of Roasted Almond Frappuccino is 490 yen in Toll, 530 yen in Grande, 570 yen in Venti, Everything is a limited-time product, so if you like almonds, usually you do not even drink coffee usually I would like you to try it.
