The present invention has an object of providing a concentrated coffee extract which is rich in aroma component released when the roasted coffee beans are ground and has an amount of coffee oil controllable in accordance with the use and purpose, and a process for industrially producing the same. According to the present invention, the above object is achieved by separating an aroma component-containing distillate, a coffee oil-containing liquid, and a coffee extract from a slurry obtained by wet-grinding roasted coffee beans, and after the coffee extract is concentrated, adding back the aroma component-containing distillate and the coffee oil-containing liquid.

The invention claimed is: 1. A process for producing an aroma-containing clarified and concentrated coffee extract, the process comprising the steps of: (a) adding a liquid to roasted coffee beans and wet-grinding the resultant substance to form a slurry; (b) stripping-treating the slurry formed in step (a) to separate an aroma component-containing distillate and the stripping-treated slurry from each other; (c) rough-filtrating the stripping-treated slurry obtained in step (b); (d) separating the rough-filtrated filtrate obtained in step (c) into three layers of a coffee oil-containing liquid, a coffee extract and a sludge using a three-layer centrifuge; (e) fine-filtrating the coffee extract obtained in step (d) to obtain a clarified coffee extract; (f) concentrating the clarified coffee extract obtained in step (e) to obtain a clarified and concentrated coffee extract; and (g) mixing the clarified and concentrated coffee extract obtained in step (f) with a part of, or the entirety of, the aroma component-containing distillate obtained in step (b) to obtain the aroma-containing clarified and concentrated coffee extract. 2. The process according to claim 1, wherein the concentration of the roasted and wet-grinded coffee beans in the slurry in step (a) including the roasted and wet-grinded coffee beans and the liquid is in the range of 3 to 30% by weight based on the total weight of the slurry. 3. The process according to claim 1, wherein the average particle diameter of the roasted and wet-grinded coffee beans in step (a) is in the range of 300 μm to 1 mm. 4. The process according to claim 1, wherein the temperature of the liquid in step (a) is in range of 1 to 40° C. 5. The process according to claim 1, wherein step (b) uses a continuous film distillation apparatus as a stripping-treatment apparatus. 6. The process according to claim 1, wherein the aroma component-containing distillate separated in step (b) is included in the range of 1 to 10% by weight based on the total weight of the slurry formed in step (a). 7. The process according to claim 1, wherein the fine-filtration in step (e) is filter aid filtration and/or filtering material filtration. 8. An aroma-containing clarified and concentrated coffee extract produced in a process according to claim 1, wherein the aroma-containing clarified and concentrated coffee extract has a concentration of a soluble solid content in the range of 1 to 70% by weight, and contains a diethylether extract in an amount of equal to or less than 8% by weight based on the total weight of the soluble solid content. 9. A mixed concentrated coffee extract, comprising an aroma-containing clarified and concentrated coffee extract produced in a process according to claim 1 and a fixed bed column-extracted concentrated coffee extract obtained by a counter-current multi-stage extraction method using a fixed bed extraction column; wherein a soluble solid content derived from the aroma-containing clarified and concentrated coffee extract is equal to or higher than 5% by weight based on the total weight of a soluble solid content in the mixed concentrated coffee extract. 10. A process for producing an oil aroma-containing concentrated coffee extract, the process comprising the steps of in addition to the process according to claim 1; (h) adding a part of, or the entirety of, the coffee oil-containing liquid obtained in step (d) to the aroma-containing clarified and concentrated coffee extract obtained in step (g) and homogeneously mixing the resultant substance. 11. An oil aroma-containing concentrated coffee extract produced in a process according to claim 10, which has a concentration of a soluble solid content in the range of 1 to 70% by weight, and contains a diethylether extract in an amount in the range of 3 to 30% by weight based on the total weight of the soluble solid content. 12. A mixed concentrated coffee extract, comprising an oil aroma-containing concentrated coffee extract produced in a process according to claim 10, and a fixed bed column-extracted concentrated coffee extract obtained by a counter-current multi-stage extraction method using a fixed bed extraction column; wherein a soluble solid content derived from the oil aroma-containing concentrated coffee extract is equal to or higher than 5% by weight based on the total weight of a soluble solid content in the mixed concentrated coffee extract. 13. A process for producing an aroma-containing clarified and concentrated coffee extract, the process comprising the steps of: (a) adding a liquid to roasted coffee beans and wet-grinding the resultant substance to form a slurry; (b) stripping-treating the slurry formed in step (a) to separate an aroma component-containing distillate and the stripping-treated slurry from each other; (c) rough-filtrating the stripping-treated slurry obtained in step (b); (d) separating the rough-filtrated filtrate obtained in step (c) into three layers of a coffee oil-containing liquid, a coffee extract and a sludge using a three-layer centrifuge; (e′) concentrating the coffee extract obtained in step (d) to obtain a pre-clarification concentrated coffee extract; (f′) fine-filtrating the pre-clarification concentrated coffee extract obtained in step (e′) to obtain a clarified and concentrated coffee extract; and (g) mixing the clarified and concentrated coffee extract obtained in step (f′) with a part of, or the entirety of, the aroma component-containing distillate obtained in step (b) to obtain the aroma-containing clarified and concentrated coffee extract. 14. The process according to claim 13, wherein the concentration of the roasted and ground coffee beans in the slurry in step (a) including the roasted and wet-grinded coffee beans and the liquid is in the range of 3 to 30% by weight based on the total weight of the slurry. 15. The process according to claim 13, wherein the average particle diameter of the roasted and ground coffee beans in step (a) is in the range of 300 μm to 1 mm. 16. The process according to claim 13, wherein the temperature of the liquid in step (a) is in range of 1 to 40° C. 17. The process according to claim 13, wherein step (b) uses a continuous film distillation apparatus as a stripping-treatment apparatus. 18. The process according to claim 13, wherein the aroma component-containing distillate separated in step (b) is included in the range of 1 to 10% by weight based on the total weight of the slurry formed in step (a). 19. The process according to claim 8, wherein the fine-filtration in step (f′) is filtration using a filter aid and/or a filtering material. 20. A process for producing an oil aroma-containing concentrated coffee extract, the process comprising the step of, in addition to the process according to claim 13; (h) adding a part of, or the entirety of, the coffee oil-containing liquid obtained in step (d) to the-aroma-containing clarified and concentrated coffee extract obtained in step (g) and homogeneously mixing the resultant substance.
