On July 1, Starbucks will expand its exclusive tea offerings in Japan with a broad lineup of colorful and aromatic teas at the newly reopened Starbucks Coffee Roppongi Hills Metro Hat/Hollywood Plaza Store in downtown Tokyo.

Since Starbucks opened its first store in Japan in 1996, it has reimagined local tea favorites like Matcha and Hojicha through Starbucks signature lattes and Frappuccino® blended beverages. These new ways to experience tea have taken root as part of Japan’s modern tea culture and laid the foundation for Starbucks continuous innovation into the world of tea. 

With creations inspired by the popular TEAVANA Bar on the second floor of the Starbucks Reserve® Roastery Tokyo, the newly reopened store offers customers a chance to relax with unique beverages featuring high-quality tea and brightly-colored fruit, as well as classic Starbucks espresso favorites.

NEW TEAVANA BEVERAGES
