Clculating the size of everything in a shop from a cup of coffee

Morio Munemitsu

From a collection of conversation between Morimitsu and Katsuji Bojo, both of who are a master at roasting and dripping through a flannel filter, "Coffee Men." When Morimitsu says that a chair has its own size, Bojo responds that "enjoying coffee decides things from the tool to furniture. When Morimitsu says that the grounds for judgment are only understood later, Bojo returns that "there's a case in which everyone can live because something is not clear." The two of them grasp a small thing at hand with a big space-time sense.
