Chapter 1951: Neo Baby Castella Blend ③
I was surprised to hear there are 37 different types, but on second thought, I didn't really need to drink the full cup of each. A sip should be enough to get a sense of the flavor…… though 37 types are still quite a lot……
[The coffee has been prepared in advance. I was thinking of having you try them in order, starting with the coarsely ground, milder ones. I think it’ll be clearer than starting with the strong ones.]
[Though you say that, I'm not very good at judging coffee quality.]
[That's fine, it's more about your general impression. Whether you think this one seems like it would go well with baby castella, or if you like this flavor———- just your loose opinion is enough. We'll make the final decision in our meeting, so consider it just a reference.]
[I see, that makes me feel more at ease.]
Since my opinion is just a reference, it’s good that I can evaluate them casually. In that case, let's start drinking the coffee Kuro had prepared…… unn, it's already delicious.
[Somehow, even though this was just the first cup, it already seems like it would pair really well with baby castellas.]
[Unn. All of these have been adjusted to pair well with baby castella, so they should all match well.]
[I see…… By the way, does Kuro’s company offer anything besides the baby castella blend?]
[Of course, we do. We also have some new products planned for release alongside this Neo Baby Castella Blend. Ahh, that's right. I'll give Kaito-kun some samples, so if you know any coffee lovers, recommend them. They’re scheduled to be released at the beginning of the month after next.]Coffee lovers huh…… The first people who come to mind are Ozma-san and Elise-san. Ozma seems to really like coffee, and Elise also identifies herself as a coffee lover, so recommending it to them seems good.
Other than them…… Perhaps Shea-san? I don't remember specifically having discussed this with her before, but she gives off the impression that she might prefer coffee over tea.
……They're the only ones that come to mind right now. I generally think most people I know prefer tea. There might be coffee lovers I’m not aware of, but since this is for promotional purposes, it’s fine to recommend it as long as they don’t dislike coffee.
[……Ahh, this one might be my favorite out of all the ones I've tried. The aftertaste is clean, so it seems good for the morning.]
[Fumu fumu, number 9 huh…… However, I see, as expected of Kaito-kun! Not only do you base your judgment with how matching it is with baby castellas, depending on whether it's for morning, noon, or night, the best match could change. Maybe it's worth considering releasing three varieties for morning, noon, and night……]
[H- Hmm, I wasn't really thinking that deeply about it…… But there are coffee beans specifically suited for morning coffee, so it might be a good idea?]
I wasn’t really considering what Kuro mentioned. I just thought it seemed like a good choice for the morning…… but since there are morning blends for canned coffee, what she said does make sense. Well, let's just ignore how she just casually talked about eating baby castellas in the morning, noon and night……N/nêw n0vel chap/ers are published o/n n0v/e/(lb)i(n.)co/m
[By the way, is there a particular one that you like, Kuro?]
[For me, I'd say the coffee around this area. It’s a bit stronger in bitterness, but it enhances the simple sweetness of the baby castella, so I think it’s a good match.]
[Indeed, considering the sweetness left in the mouth after eating baby castellas, a slightly bitter coffee might actually be a better match to reset the palate.]
Surprisingly, discussing which coffee pairs best with baby castellas while tasting the options turned out enjoyable, and just like that, Kuro and I continued to have a fun discussion about the Neo Baby Castella Blend.
<Afterword>
Serious-senpai : [Considering the title, I guess the story would continue until the introduction of the company and their sales?]
