Frankfurt · est. 2019

Eighteen hours. One drop at a time.

We brew specialty coffee the Kyoto way — slow-dripped through cold water for a full night, never heated, never rushed. The result is impossibly smooth, naturally sweet, and quietly intense.

Our Story

Coffee with patience built in

Kyoto Cold Brew began with a single tower of glass in a corner of a Frankfurt roastery. While the rest of the world chased speed, we fell for the opposite: the slow, deliberate rhythm of cold extraction. Today we source single-origin beans from small farms in Ethiopia, Colombia and Sumatra, and let time do the work.

By the numbers

18h drip · 4°C · 0 shortcuts

Every bottle is dripped at four degrees over eighteen hours, then rested for a day before it ever reaches you. No concentrate. No dilution. Just coffee and cold water.

Our Brews

Three ways to drink it cold

Small batches, rotated with the seasons. Bottled the morning they ship.

Classic Kyoto Drip

€6.50 · 300ml

Our house drip — chocolate, toasted almond and a clean, lingering finish. The one we built the company on.

Nitro Cold Brew

€7.00 · 330ml

Infused with nitrogen for a cascading, creamy pour. Tastes like dessert, drinks like espresso.

Single-Origin Reserve

€9.00 · 300ml

A rotating micro-lot, dripped solo. This month: a washed Yirgacheffe with jasmine and stone fruit.

The Slow Drip

How a bottle is made

We film every stage in the brew room. Press play on any step to watch the drip in real time.

01

Source & roast

Green beans roasted light-medium to keep the origin's brightness alive.

02

Tower & ice

Ground coarse, layered in the glass tower beneath a slow bed of melting ice.

03

Eighteen hours

One drop every two seconds. The whole night, unattended and unheated.

04

Rest & bottle

Rested 24h to round out, then bottled cold and sent the same morning.
