アメリカ大使館(@usembassytokyo):On August 2, 1996, Starbucks opened its very first store in Japan on Ginza Matsuya-dori in Tokyo. The historic first order was a Double Tall Latte — a large Starbucks latte with an extra shot of espresso. This single order kicked off Japan's second cafe boom, and today, with over 2,000 stores nationwide, Starbucks has become a cherished part of everyday life in Japan.
