[In commemoration of the Bakabake broadcast] The new product "Bunko-style Lafcadio Coffee" is now on sale.

On Thursday, September 11th, we launched Lafcadio Coffee, a paperback-style package containing anecdotes and ghost stories related to Lafcadio Hearn (Koizumi Yakumo),available at Nakamura Chaho's main store and online shop.

The three types of paperback Lafcadio Coffee are original blends created with the theme "coffee that makes you feel close to Yakumo." While Yakumo is famous for his ghost stories, his personality, life, and thoughts are not yet widely known.

When you open the box, you can enjoy a one-page ghost story set in Matsue and episodes about Yakumo related to it.

＜Our vision for paperback Lafcadio Coffee＞

While Yakumo is famous for his ghost stories, his personality, life, and thoughts are not yet widely known.

Nakamura Chaho participated in international symposiums on Koizumi Yakumo held in Greece in 2009 and 2014,

In 2015, at the Open Mind of Lafcadio Hearn project held in his home country of Ireland, we connected with local people through matcha experiences.

Lafcadio Hearn, a literary giant born in Greece, raised in Ireland, and eventually naturalized in Japan, changing his name to "Koizumi Yakumo."

He traveled through foreign lands and finally found spiritual peace in Japan.

Aroma and taste that connect people across borders and time.

We offer three types of "Paperback Lafcadio Coffee" with the theme of Yakumo's stories × ghost stories × coffee. All three types of ghost stories are selected from those set in Matsue.

We hope you can feel Yakumo's gaze in every drop.

★This product was created with the cooperation of Mr. Bon Koizumi, the great-grandson of Lafcadio Hearn.
