Grateful for opportunities like this.

This Friday, we'll be at Fellow on Abbot Kinney sharing Philippine coffee, the stories behind it, and the work being done by farmers thousands of miles away.

What you're seeing is more than a coffee tasting.

It's what it looks like when years of work in farming, importing, roasting, education, and community come together to create opportunities for Philippine coffee in new markets.

We'll be brewing:

☕ Single Origin Benguet Arabica
☕ Bold Barako Blend

Our goal has never been to simply sell coffee. It's to help people understand where it comes from, who grows it, and why Philippine coffee deserves a place in the global coffee conversation.

Every new partnership, every tasting, and every cup poured creates another opportunity for Filipino farmers to be seen and heard.
