Vol.115 Okinawan Tastes

Overview

During her summer trip to Okinawa Prefecture, Venetia visits a coffee farm in the mountains, with increasingly more farmers growing coffee in this area. She tastes a precious cup full of the farmer's passion for 100% locally grown coffee. A friend treats her to dishes flavored with muscovado. She then visits a sugar maker who makes muscovado the old-fashioned way. He quit his job a few years ago to become a sugar maker. The taste of pure muscovado, made only from sugarcane juice, impresses her.
