Our story began with our American friend Chris. In 2006, he founded Highlands Coffee in Guiyang, bringing the American café culture he knew to a new city.

I joined the business in 2010. Coffee, cheesecake and the people who came through our doors became part of everyday life.

Today, our journey continues in Tokyo. A different language, culture and way of life ask us to learn again. After watching a foreign friend build a café in China, we are now foreign entrepreneurs in Japan.

Twenty years have taught us what to hold on to. A new city reminds us how to begin.
