The Fuji Royal 'Mirukko' in Horiguchi Coffee's original color is a piece you'd often see in large commercial sizes at cafes. However, this version has been conveniently downsized for domestic use. Its design, rich in retro and analog aesthetics, stirs up nostalgia for traditional coffee shops, making it more reminiscent of them than modern cafes, a quality I find deeply appealing.

The original colors of Mirukko are glossy black, yellow, and red, which are quite vibrant and can stand out in our home kitchen. In contrast, Horiguchi Coffee's original colors have been chosen with Nordic furniture and tableware in mind, hence they blend well with our home and I've been using them for a long time.
Not only does it have a pleasing appearance, but it also boasts professional-grade performance. Its robustness, the consistency of the ground beans, and a structure that minimizes dust are testament to its functionality and design. This makes it one of the few home coffee appliances where both elements coexist.
