I wanted to make a delicious non-caffeinated beverage for my pregnant wife.
In the first year after moving to Ishitetsuhaku, my wife became pregnant.
When I started looking for non-caffeinated beverages that are gentle on the body of pregnant women, I remember being surprised at the number of types unexpectedly.
In addition to coffee, I was able to learn from my wife's pregnancy how many opportunities we take in caffeine on a daily basis, such as green tea and oolong tea.
It was around this time that I learned about the existence of "brown rice coffee" as a typical non-caffeinated beverage.
Until now, I have been aiming to grow delicious vegetables that I can feel safe with, but my wife
It all started when I thought, "Let's make a non-caffeinated beverage that tastes good and can be drunk with peace of mind!"
The only brown rice coffee in Japan
The characteristics of brown rice coffee are the richness and sweetness that cannot be produced in "brown rice tea", and the color of coffee.
The decisive factor was realized by a special roasting method called the "black roasting technique".
While most of the rice used as raw materials in the market is "white rice", we use "black rice" for the entire amount of rice by taking advantage of the strengths of farmers.
Black rice, also known as ancient rice, is more nutritious than white rice, rich in vitamins and minerals, and produces a unique sweetness that cannot be produced with white rice due to the polyphenols derived from anthocyanins, which are contained only in black rice.
In addition, roasted millet "Hie" is roasted and blended to make "black coffee".
Millet is an ingredient that has been attracting renewed attention in recent years due to its high nutritional value.
In the search for truly delicious brown rice coffee, by blending hie as the only ingredient that can only be found here in Ishi Tetsuhaku, it is finished in the only brown rice coffee in Japan with a sweetness rich in dietary fiber and a slightly fragrant richness.
