v15 Chapter 28: Magical Geisha

When the night gradually fell, Lin Xiuyi's friends also rushed to the lively Sakura no Sato coffee shop. The first person to arrive here was Kono Shohei, an official of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, as the only one other than Lin Xiuyi who knew about Sakurako's past. An acquaintance, although Kono rarely has time to visit Sakura no Sato because of his work, he has always been concerned about Sakurako's situation, which is why he brings a bag of coffee from abroad when he is on a business trip. for the sake of.

Seeing Kono's arrival, Sakurako hurriedly and enthusiastically took him to where Lin Xiuyi and Yuko were, and then changed to give everyone some non-coffee drinks to kill time, and at this moment, Lin Xiuyi's cell phone also Vibrated again.

"Moses? Moses?"

"Uh, Xiuichi-kun, that I have already been outside the Sakura no Sato coffee shop, are you there now?"

"Hey! Wait a minute, then, I'll pick you up right now!"

As soon as Lin Xiu said that, he said goodbye to Yingzi and others, and then walked straight towards the store door.

A few minutes later, when Lin Xiuyi came with a beautiful woman who looked quite temperamental, both Sakurako and Yuko, and Kono couldn't help but be a little surprised!

"First meeting, I'm Lin Xiuyi's classmate at Mingshan High School, my name is Riho Kirishima, please take care of that!"

"Take care of you!"

Seeing that everyone was a little reserved, Li Fan could only respond with a smile. However, as the proprietress here, Sakurako quickly showed her enthusiasm. She politely introduced herself to Lifan, and then sent her handbag and coat to a safe place for her.

When everyone sat down, the waiter in the store first brought a cup of hot tea to Li Fan, and then asked the owner Yingzi:

"Is there anything I can help you with?"

"Leave it to me here, just take care of the other guests!"

Sakurako smiled and told her staff, and then said to everyone present:

"I have carefully selected the coffee that Mr. Kono sent me before. Before you came, I also tried roasting some myself. Wait a minute, let's taste the espresso made from these coffee beans first. ?"

Lin Xiuyi and Kono Shohei first nodded their agreement to Sakurako, and then Lin Xiuyi and Sakurako looked towards Yuko and Lifan. When Yuko heard that they wanted to taste bitter espresso, she couldn't help but shook her head in disgust, while Lifan He smiled and thanked Sakurako.

"Miko-chan, everyone is here tonight to taste those coffees, you can't escape!"

Sakurako pretended to be angry and taught Yuko a lesson.

"Alright! Alright! Don't be angry? I really don't know why people like to drink something so bitter, so I'll be just like everyone else!"

After everyone agreed with Sakurako's proposal, Sakurako went to the back of the counter and took out the batch of coffee beans that had been made before, and then used a powder grinder to grind it into coffee powder of suitable particle size.

Ten minutes later, when Sakurako and an assistant arrived at the seats with coffee and some coffee beans for tasting, everyone instantly smelled a special aroma.

"Hey, I didn't expect it to smell so good? I just don't know how it tastes."

Kono Shohei said with some ignorance pretending to understand. As soon as he finished speaking, he saw Sakurako picked up 8 small boxes from the tray and placed them on the dining table where everyone was sitting. So Kono Shohei could not help but curiously asked Sakurako for advice:

"Miss Sakurako, these are"

"These are semi-finished products roasted with those coffee beans that you brought Mr. Kono, from very light roast to city roast to Italian roast, making a total of eight different roasting styles of coffee beans"

Seeing the coffee beans placed on the table, Lin Xiuyi first picked up a few small dishes and put them under his nose to smell them, then pointed to the darkest one and asked:

"This one is the Italian-roasted coffee beans used to make espresso!"

"Hey, then everyone please taste it first!"

Under Sakurako's signal, everyone brought a small cup of coffee in front of them, and then took a sip. When the first sip of coffee was taken, everyone's expressions couldn't help showing considerable surprise, Yuzi couldn't help but take a sip. Frowning and sticking out his tongue, Kono Shohei also showed an indescribable expression between his brows. Only Liho, although he frowned slightly, still praised.

"It tastes really good!"

"Yes, there's a very strong cinnamon aroma, and on top of that, I can taste a slightly berry-like acidity and a burnt bitterness that's savory!"

After tasting it, Lin Xiuyi could not help but say the above evaluation in surprise, and at the same time he also looked at Yingzi with some puzzlement. At this time, Sakurako was also very surprised by the cup of coffee in her hand, because she had never tasted such a special Geisha coffee.

"What kind of Geisha is this? How can it have such a good taste?"

"If you have this World Barista Competition, you will be sure!"

Lin Xiuyi picked up the coffee cup and took another sip, and then asked Yingzi a little excitedly.

"Well, I'm not sure~lightnovelpub.net~ I'll definitely win. Although I haven't personally roasted the Tiepica from the lamesa estate that Maruyama Coffee used in the last competition, but I have tasted those Tiepicas. The coffee made by Ka, I am sure that the coffee beans I have in my hand will never lose to them, but why do these coffee beans look like inferior industrial coffee raw materials? That Mr. Kono, can you please Tell me, which farm produced these coffee beans?"

"Hey, are these coffees really that good? I remember that the Japanese volunteer who gave me these beans told me that they were collected by local women from the undeveloped virgin forests, mainly from In order to earn some pocket money to subsidize the family, as for the rest, I really don’t know!”

"Really? Could you please help me practice that school? I want to go to Ethiopia to see it myself!"

"If Miss Yingzi needs this, I can contact you, but it's in Africa! Ethiopia is one of the least economically developed countries in the world, and the degree of backwardness there is far beyond your imagination. Are you going to make it that way?"

"Hey! Please help me get in touch with the other party, and I will fly over as soon as possible!"
