CAN-PANY is pleased to announce the launch of a new canned coffee category: Specialty Coffee Can (SCC). This product is the first of its kind in Japan*, and is made with pasteurized coffee and refrigerated storage to ensure freshness and an unprecedented taste.
(*As of September 2025, based on our research, for canned coffee made with specialty coffee beans and requiring refrigeration and pasteurization.)
We will be exhibiting and demonstrating for the first time at the upcoming SCAJ (an event hosted by the Specialty Coffee Association of Japan). 
Features of the new Specialty Coffee CAN (SCC)
- This coffee is "like fresh food" and is based on a cold chain, setting it apart from conventional "room temperature, long-term storage" canned coffee.
- An extraction process that precisely controls temperature and time, optimizing the profile of each bean and roaster.
- Low-temperature sterilization process ensures an unprecedented fresh taste.
- This is a unique initiative in which the roasting and extraction recipes designed by a micro roaster are faithfully reproduced in small batches and sealed in cans.
- A platform that expands Japan's specialty coffee culture and takes it to the next stage.
Presentation and exhibition venue: SCAJ
This project will be announced at SCAJ2025 , Japan's largest specialty coffee event. At the venue, a demonstration will be held where visitors can experience the fresh taste of the "Specialty Coffee Can."
At the same time, new products will be announced that combine CAN-PANY's unique beverage manufacturing and filling technology with coffee culture, including a non-alcoholic beverage that utilizes the chaff (thin skin) that is created when coffee beans are roasted.

Future developments and vision

Just like craft beer, we aim to create a diverse canned coffee culture that is unique to each region and roaster, and to spread the Japanese specialty coffee experience that brings together consumers, fans, and roasters.
