His practices specialize in, among other fields, Biological Engineering. Mr. Yamamoto said, "I am honored to join NuZee's Advisory Team and believe single serve pour over coffee has the potential to become as popular in the United States as it is in Japan. I would like to try to help NuZee explore commercializing coffee by-products.
