In order to provide the best coffee, Mr. Donghai specially bought a piece of land in Hawaii to grow the best coffee, became the only exporter of the best roaster in Japan, and successfully won the agent of SLAYER (the best coffee maker in Espresso) in Japan. This shop covers everything from planting, trading to baking.

Unlike other stores that also have a wide range of desserts,% ARABICA always sells coffee beans and four freshly ground coffees: Espresso (concentrated), Macchiato (macchiato), Latte (latte) and Americano (American).

Mr. Donghai not only invited the champion of the world latte competition, Junichi Yamaguchi, as the chief barista of Lanshan, but also absorbed a group of young baristas. On the bar, customers can clearly see every step of the process of making coffee. % ARABICA uses the world's top roaster Slayer Espresso to roast coffee beans, each cup of coffee has pull flowers, the amount of milk is very bold, every cup of coffee is full of milk flavor. % ARABICA constantly refreshes customers' favor on details, and also gathers more popularity for% ARABICA.
