Making Daily Coffee More Accessible: Maruyama Coffee Launches New Blend Drip Bags 'Maruken no Ongaeshi' (Medium-Dark & Dark Roast) on September 1

From Maruyama Coffee: 'Delicious drip bags as a token of appreciation'

Kenichiro Maruyama, representative and buyer of Maruyama Coffee, personally visits coffee-producing regions to source high-quality beans directly. Driven by the desire to 'make daily coffee more enjoyable and accessible,' Maruyama Coffee has launched 'Maruken no Ongaeshi'—a drip bag series reflecting this philosophy.

Since its debut in 2021, this product has been widely loved by customers. Previously available only as 400g whole beans, the brand now introduces convenient 50-piece and 100-piece drip bag packs to make premium coffee even easier to enjoy.

Two flavor profiles are offered. The medium-dark roast blend features a balanced bitterness and acidity with a smooth, approachable taste. The dark roast blend emphasizes depth and richness, with subdued acidity and a satisfying, full-bodied character.

Both blends are crafted to be enjoyable every day without monotony, perfect for homes, offices, and various daily settings.
