Benefits

A deep, bitter taste with a mellow milk finish: The pack describes a bitter cafe au lait with the deep taste of dark-roast coffee, balanced three parts coffee to one part milk. Sweetness is rated one out of five, so the cup is bold and rounded, with a mellow milk finish rather than a heavy sugary taste.

Three commitments from the maker made for daily use: Our recipe rests on three things: a blend made by a coffee appraiser that includes Italian-roast coffee, whole milk powder from Hokkaido raw milk that suits cafe au lait, and caramelized sugar that adds a rich roasted sweetness. Each one is named on the front of the box.

No sweeteners other than sugar you can rely on: The box states that no sweeteners other than sugar are used. The ingredient list is short: sugar, a milk-based food, coffee, whole milk powder, salt, vegetable oil and caramelized sugar, with a few additives. You can see what you are drinking before you open a stick.

Hot, or iced even with cold water: For a hot cup, stir one stick into 180 ml of hot water. For an iced one, dissolve the stick in 20 ml of water, add 130 ml of water, stir and add ice. The powder dissolves even in cold water, so no kettle is needed for the iced version.

Clear nutrition for each stick that suits everyday use: One 11.9 g stick gives 53 kcal, with 0.7 g protein, 1.6 g fat, 8.8 g carbohydrate and 0.2 g salt equivalent, and the allergen is milk. Five sticks in a box make it easy to try the flavour, share it or keep one for each workday.

Sticks with rounded corners, made in Japan: The sticks have rounded corners that are safe in a bag and an easy-open cut that tears by hand. This cafe au lait is made in Japan by our company, which has long worked with coffee and tea, and we ship it directly from Japan with careful packing.

How to Use

Hot: add water
