I always thought karai meant spicy, and that if you wanted to say salty, you had to say shioppai! I guess from context, how could miso coffee not be salty?
I had salty tea once at the company onsen. My wife told me that it was made from cherry blossoms, so I expected it to be a bit like rosehip tea. It was also supposed to be good for me. I took a swig and wanted to spit it out, but the gaijin guest has to always be super polite. I finished it, pretending it was chicken broth.
