The Boss Coffee logo.

Boss (ボス) is the brand name of canned and plastic bottled coffee and coffee-flavored beverages sold by Suntory in Japan. It was released in 1992 and is one of many brands of Japanese Canned Coffee.

The brand's recognizable logo features a mustachioed, pipe-smoking man. It has an equally recognizable slogan: "Suntory BOSS is the boss of them all since 1992."

Boss brand is known for its aggressive campaigns which use a jacket nicknamed Boss Jan (BOSSジャン) as a promotional item.

Famous Japanese singer Ayumi Hamasaki was the spokes person for BOSS in the early 2000s. At that time she started in commercials singing the BOSS jingle which was a cover of Nat King Cole's song LOVE.
