Japanese iced coffee

Japanese iced coffee is a brewing method that involves making coffee directly over ice, which quickly chills the beverage and intensifies its flavors. Typically, hot water is poured over coffee grounds placed on a dripper or in a filter, allowing the coffee to drip directly onto a bed of ice. This process results in a fresh, aromatic, and balanced cold coffee with a clean taste, retaining the clarity and brightness of the beans. It’s valued for its smoothness and vibrant flavor, offering a refreshing alternative to traditional hot brewing.
