Weirdo! Japan's first "garlic Coffee" without caffeine

There are many strange things everywhere, especially in Japan! According to a report by Japan's Kyodo News Agency on October 15, the appearance and taste are coffee, but the raw material is 100 percent garlic produced in Aomori Prefecture, Japan. Garlic Coffee, developed by Norishi Shimohiro (74) of Nanbu Town of the prefecture, has become a topic since it was released in January this year. He added: "This could be a world first. Because it is caffeine-free, people who want coffee at night and pregnant women are expected to drink it."

Shimohira, who used to run a coffee shop in Hachinohe City, Aomori Prefecture, reportedly burned steak and garlic about 30 years ago because he concentrated on receiving guests. He was surprised to find a "coffee-like" bitterness when he poured hot water from blackened garlic crushed with a spoon.

After retirement, Xiaping "wanted more people to know" the taste of garlic coffee, and repeatedly conducted research for commercialization. He adjusted the roasting method and temperature, and finally made a satisfactory "coffee" about five years ago after repeated exploration. The method is to roast garlic in an electric furnace until the outer skin is completely black, and then roast it at a lower temperature until the inner part is amber. Cool until not scalded, grind into powder and filter out. In 2015, a patent was obtained and a studio was opened in Iwate Prefecture.

Garlic has a warming effect, so people with cold and anemia are also suitable for drinking. It is said that although it has the smell of garlic, it is heated for a long time, so there is no need to worry about bad breath after drinking.
