"Words That Embrace Japan's Four Seasons”

Inspired by the beauty of Japanese words, LiLo’s Seasonal Blend 2025 brings you a special moment to savor the “now.”

Sansen Kōsen Blend
(Mountain River Crimson Blend)

In November, Japan is painted in gentle warmth —

as the air grows colder by the day,

the maple and ginkgo leaves glow with color,

creating a mosaic crafted by nature itself.

“Sansen Kōsen” describes

the vivid late-autumn scenery

where mountains and rivers are dyed in crimson hues.

This blend captures that moment —

with juicy sweetness and acidity of blood orange,

flavors of cranberry and apricot woven together like a mosaic,

and a pleasant cup that adds a touch of color

to the deepening autumn.

SEASONAL BLEND 2025 

The Japanese language is deeply intertwined with nature.

Our ancestors revered the natural world, cherishing its beauty and cultivating harmonious relationships with others.

This mindfulness and care form the foundation

of Japanese culture and language.

These words often intertwine human emotions with natural phenomena

—comparing a person’s presence to a flower or drawing parallels between life’s rhythms and the changing seasons.

Each season offers its own poetic expressions       

—words that capture the essence of the sky, the moon, the light, the wind, the rain, and the cherry blossoms. 

These words distill the beauty and emotional depth of Japanese sensibilities into vivid, heartfelt imagery.

Engaging with these words awakens the senses.

Familiar terms may evoke nostalgia, while new discoveries may inspire moments of wonder.

The mere sight of these characters can ignite the imagination,

and their sounds bring a calming sense of beauty.

In the midst of our busy lives, carving out moments of tranquility to center ourselves is invaluable. 

This year’s seasonal blend is designed to enrich those moments,

adding a touch of vibrant color to your day.

Now in its fifth year, LiLo Coffee Roasters’ Seasonal Blend 2025 celebrates the timeless beauty of Japanese words.

Each blend invites you to savor the present moment—“the now.”

Through every sip, experience the essence of Japan’s four seasons and create a personal, unforgettable moment uniquely your own.
