COFFEE VALLEY opened in 2014 as the first specialty coffee shop in the Ikebukuro area. Its owner is Koike Tsukasa . He was attracted to the coffee culture he encountered while Manabu in the UK, and while gaining experience as a barista, he began roasting in search of the ideal taste. The hand drip specialty shop on the third floor of the shop offers a space where customers can enjoy carefully selected high-grade beans and a story from the origin to roasting and brewing. He wants to create a place where any customer can find their favorite coffee from a wide variety of coffee beans and roasting degrees.

Roasted to produce a clean, sweet, long-lasting finish.


Roasting is an important part of the process from cultivation to a cup of coffee. Deciding the direction of the flavor based on the degree of roasting can be said to represent the philosophy of the shop. I aim for a roast that is clean and has a long-lasting sweet aftertaste. My specialty is medium roasts, but I am always striving for the ideal so that I can roast any degree, from light to dark.

The roaster we use is the German company Probat's "PROBATONE12". We chose it because it has always been the go-to roaster. It has a wide range of roasts, is well-balanced, and is easy to create a sweet impression.

It's true that roasting affects the taste, but at the core of it all is wanting to hear people say, "That was delicious coffee." In pursuit of better coffee, I want to continue to deepen my roasting skills.

Elegant Guji Natural


This is a classy and elegant coffee. It is clean, with a citrus flavor such as orange and a red wine flavor, and the smoothness of the mouthfeel is also appealing, resulting in a great cup quality.


Anasora washing station is located in the Anasora settlement at an altitude of 1900m in Shakiso County, northwest of Guji. Guji is one of the zones in the Oromia region and was named after the Oromo tribe that lives in this area. In the ECX category, it was categorized as Sidamo in the past, so it was categorized as Sidamo Guji.

Coffee is produced in five woredas (counties): Uraga, Adra, Shakiso, Hambela and Kercha. Shakiso is known as one of the richest areas in Ethiopia, with coffee grown in a lush forest belt.

The people who live in this area are mainly Oromo people, from whom Guji is named, as well as Gedeo and Amhara peoples. Washing stations are said to have been introduced to Ethiopia in the 1970s, and Guji and the neighboring Yirgacheffe and Sidamo areas are considered to be the pioneers. Washing stations have a long history, and Guji is considered a representative production area in Ethiopia and a famous producer of high-quality coffee.



The Anasola Washing Station has 12 fermentation tanks and 280 African beds on a 5.2 hectare site, and during the harvest season cherries are brought in every day by over 300 small-scale farmers living in the surrounding area.

The Anasola Washing Station aims to produce high-quality coffee that meets the Grade 1 standard, and the cherries brought in for the natural process are sorted again to separate only the cherries that are well ripe. The separated cherries are then carried to African beds with assigned table numbers, where they are spread thinly, stirred, and sorted repeatedly until they reach the ideal moisture level in about three weeks.


Thanks to the rich volcanic soil, the microclimate caused by the complex terrain and natural environment, and the temperature difference between day and night, the cherries slowly ripen and have an exotic and unique flavor that is unique to Guji. Since Guji was categorized as a coffee producing area, the motivation of the washing stations and producers has increased, bringing vitality to the region.
