I went to Hankyu with someone to choose chocolates for Valentine's Day, and amidst the overwhelming options, I found one that jumped out at me - coffee flavored chocolates, which I love. I was contemplating whether to get them or not when my sister-in-law bought them for me as a souvenir. "Oh, this shop is near our house," she said. I remembered seeing it before but never had the chance to visit. The taste was delicious. Next time, I want to go to the store and enjoy coffee while savoring the flavors.

I took away the following three points: ①Osaka Blend Coffee Jelly ②Osaka Blend Coffee Pudding ③Cafe Latte Pudding. The Osaka Blend Coffee Jelly is your typical coffee jelly. The cream on top is not too sweet, but I think a little less of it would be better. The texture of the jelly is good. The Osaka Blend Coffee Pudding has a nice balance of the bitterness from the caramel sauce at the bottom and the coffee flavor of the pudding itself. It was quite good.

I had work in Umeda on this day, so on my way home from work, I bought a cut of coffee roll cake from this shop as a souvenir for my wife. I had been curious about it since I used Demel before, but that day I had already bought too much, so I planned to come back again. As expected from a coffee shop, the taste and aroma were as if coffee was the main character. I also used good beans for my home coffee. It was delicious.

I went to the main store of "Hiro Coffee" in Esaka to buy coffee cake for the New Year♡ Coffee flavored sweets are so delicious... I love that unique taste of bitterness, different from cocoa. I bought a coffee roll for 1404 yen, which can be enjoyed little by little during the New Year holidays as it lasts for about 5-6 days. It's a great dessert that can also be used as a gift. The coffee buttercream and fluffy cake make it a perfect coffee roll that lets you fully enjoy the taste of coffee. It's not overly sweet, so it's perfect for those who don't like overly sweet desserts. Our family loved it. They also sell slices of the cake, but those have a shorter shelf life. They also have simple fluffy cake rolls, pudding, and tiramisu made by the coffee shop. I'm curious about the tiramisu with words like dark roast coffee, caramel, and chestnut in it. I want to try it all!

I bought a Tiramisu, Double Marron Latte cake from Hiro Coffee for the first time. It cost 497 yen. The sponge soaked in coffee is delicious, and the toppings like Marron cream and chestnuts give a rich feeling.

"Hiro Coffee" is truly a coffee specialty shop, as I thought when I tried their autumn limited edition sweets. I had previously purchased a variety of coffee jelly assortments here, but this time I decided to try the autumn limited edition coffee-flavored yokan (sweet bean jelly) and tiramisu. The coffee yokan comes in two flavors: Ethiopia Mocha and Indonesia Mandheling. While both had a noticeable coffee flavor, I personally preferred the Mandheling for its strong coffee taste and rich flavor. As for the tiramisu, it is also a seasonal item here. They offer three flavors: Deep Roast Coffee Creamy Latte, Caramel Nut Latte, and Double Marron Latte. Compared to other tiramisu from different shops, these ones had a more intense flavor and a strong coffee taste. I enjoyed all the flavors, but if I had to choose, the Deep Roast Coffee was my favorite. I recommend trying both the yokan and tiramisu if you enjoy coffee flavors, as they offer a unique and enjoyable experience.

"This kind of coffee specialty store may be rare. This time, I purchased a limited blend coffee bean and a bite-sized coffee jelly at this store located in the underground area of Hankyu Umeda. While there are many coffee specialty stores in department store basements, most of them only sell beans and extraction equipment. Stores that also sell coffee-based sweets like this seem surprisingly few. I decided to try the coffee beans and coffee jelly that caught my eye this time. - Osaka Blend (Coffee Beans): A deeply roasted coffee bean limited to Hankyu. I bought it for home use and when I ground the beans at home, I felt a full-bodied aroma and richness with little bitterness or off-flavors. - Homemade One-Bite Coffee Jelly: A set of Osaka Blend Jelly made with deeply roasted beans, Cafe au Lait Jelly made with milder beans and milk, and Honey Latte Jelly (or more like pudding?) with small coffee jellies inside. For those who like the flavor and clean taste of coffee itself, I recommend the Osaka Blend Jelly. For those who prefer a contrast in texture and a milder taste, the Honey Latte Jelly is recommended. By the way, on this day, I didn't purchase it due to my schedule, but this store also offers coffee-based cakes that are their specialty. If I have the opportunity, I would like to try those as well."

After returning from a bird shop near the Karahori Shopping Street, I felt tired and craving something sweet. So, I headed to the Hankyu Department Store in Umeda to check out the sweets section in the basement. It was really crowded due to the long holiday weekend. I was worried about the calories but decided to go for coffee-based sweets instead. I purchased coffee jelly and coffee roll cake from Hiro Coffee. When I tried them later that night, they were surprisingly light and not too sweet. The coffee flavor was a bit subtle for my taste, even though they use a deep roast. I wish the coffee taste was more pronounced in these coffee shop sweets. Overall, it was a decent experience.

I finally bought a chocolate cake that was featured on TV before and I wanted to try. It's a rich chocolate cake with a slightly firm chocolate surface. Overall, it's rich but not too sweet, which is nice. It's delicious. I think it would make a great gift. Thank you for the meal.

Hiro Coffee is famous for its coffee, but they also put effort into their sweets. I love coffee-flavored desserts, so I was drawn to try their cakes. On this day, I bought cakes from the department store basement with friends to have a dream buffet day! The department store basement is always appealing, but it can be challenging to take the train back to Umeda with the cakes, especially with young children. Recently, I haven't had the opportunity to do so. I planned with friends to buy cakes from the department store basement on this day and reserved a karaoke room in Umeda where outside food is allowed! It even came with free drinks, so it was amazing!! We enjoyed some adult indulgence while the kids were at kindergarten or daycare. The cakes I bought here were the Osaka Blend Tiramisu for 497 yen and the Double Chestnut Tiramisu for 519 yen. By the way, the staff here were very polite and even shared information about cakes from other shops. Lovely~♡♡♡ The "Osaka Blend Tiramisu" uses deeply roasted coffee. Tiramisu is a dessert where espresso soaks into the sponge, making it a perfect dessert for a coffee shop! The "Osaka Blend" is a blend of beans exclusive to Hankyu. The aromatic and flavorful coffee blends well with the coffee-flavored mascarpone cream on the sponge. A coffee shop's unique dessert! The fluffy texture in the plastic container is just perfect. The "Double Chestnut Tiramisu" is a tiramisu similar to Mont Blanc, with chestnut cream and European chestnuts. It is rich and delicious, with a crumble base that is crispy and tasty! It seems like coffee is also used in this dessert. Coffee-flavored desserts go well with coffee as a drink companion! There were plenty of other sweets made with coffee, so I recommend it to those who enjoy coffee-flavored desserts.

Second birthday cake. This is the second time my wife has bought it since purchasing it at the Suita City Esaka main store. It is artistically beautiful. Hirodaikoku, 1,944 yen (including tax). It is a rich chocolate flavor that is quite heavy. It is irresistible for chocolate lovers.

Based on a friend's recommendation, I tried the coffee pudding. It was smooth and had a rich coffee flavor that wasn't cheap tasting. It was delicious with a layer of whipped cream on top and a light, not too sweet caramel at the bottom.

The good aroma of espresso.

I went to buy something at Sugar Butter, thinking of having coffee afterwards, but it was full so I gave up and bought pudding instead. I started feeling a bit tipsy. I chilled it in the fridge for a while before eating it. It was soft but not too firm, with a great caramel flavor that blended well. It was really delicious. The staff was also very nice, even though it was busy, they greeted me with a smile. Thank you for the meal.

I walked from Namba to Umeda to lighten my body after having pork cutlets and eel udon. Walking along Shinsaibashi-suji was enjoyable. I made a detour to Dotonbori and Hozenji Yokocho while heading north. Around the area past Semba, my feet started dragging. No wonder, I had already taken 18,000 steps. As expected, I gave up at Yodoyabashi and transferred to the subway. I entered Hankyu and bought a bento to eat on the train. While wandering around, I came across this shop. I'll have a Berry Frappuccino, please. Topped with whipped cream, cranberries, and blueberries soaked in honey. When I put a big lump in my mouth with a spoon, I felt like my head was being hit with a hammer. It's a restless little chubby guy. Thank you for the meal.

I was wandering around Hankyu looking for dark roasted coffee. I found Hiro Coffee and decided to buy from there. They have a Hankyu-exclusive blend that is dark roasted but not too bitter, with a good balance and delicious taste. They grind the coffee beans on the spot, so it has a fresh and wonderful aroma. Despite being dark roasted, it is not too bitter and has a mild acidity, making it very easy to drink. I would like to try other blends as well, but I might end up buying this blend again.

This is a coffee corner located in the basement of Hankyu department store. It has a self-service setup similar to McDonald's, but the coffee is made from specialty beans and brewed like in a professional coffee shop. The coffee is served in paper cups with a cardboard sleeve for easy handling. When you place an order, the coffee is ground to the specified amount from a commercial grinder, ensuring a quick and precise serving. The coffee is brewed one cup at a time using pour-over method, resulting in a very delicious cup of coffee.

There is a booth called Tree Terrace located in the center of the basement 1st floor of Hankyu Umeda. It has tables and chairs, and a few shops are inside. One of them is Hiro Coffee, famous for its charming main store in Suita. Despite the size of the basement, the aroma of good coffee fills the air. I checked the menu at the counter and ordered a cafe latte for 420 yen. After paying, I received a number tag and waited for my order. As some seats became available, I got my cafe latte and opened the lid to find leaf art on top. The drink had a rich milk taste with a balanced blend of coffee's bitterness and depth. Although it's not a place for leisurely lounging, you can easily enjoy the taste of Hiro Coffee in between shopping.
