Ueshima
Ueshima sits apart from most coffee on UK shelves: a smooth, low-acid style from UCC, the Kobe company founded in 1933. We stock its three launch blends, Fuji Mountain and House Blend as ground and beans, and Tokyo Roast Ground Coffee. Fuji Mountain is dark enough to hold its shape under milk, while Tokyo Roast is the brighter cup to take black.

About Ueshima
Ueshima is the coffee brand of UCC, the Japanese company that began in Kobe in 1933 as Ueshima Tadao Shoten. Tadao Ueshima had opened a Western food store in the city before coffee took over, and the business grew into UCC Ueshima Coffee Co. UCC Coffee Europe brought the Ueshima Coffee Company range to the UK in February 2021, the brand's first move into Europe.
Ueshima is for the cafetiere on a slow morning, and for anyone who finds speciality coffee too sharp before nine. The brand itself suggests a V60 pour-over. Fuji Mountain is dark enough to hold its shape under milk; House Blend is the easier all-day cup, and Tokyo Roast the one to take black.
