We will be showcasing our Philippine bean lineup with guest beans from Kalsada and Out of Office Roasters during the tasting session. We’re also proud to support two Philippine Specialty Coffee Competition 2023 Auction winners from Lanao del Sur and Ilocos Sur.

This time from Top 7 Arabica Winner, farmer Rogelio Balacuit from Lanao del Sur with a farm elevation of 1478 MASL. With a cupping score of 84.56, this Catimor-Natural variety showcases tasting notes of Fruity, Caramel, Grapefruit, Lime, and Nutmeg.

The Top 12 Robusta Winner is from Concepcion, Gregorio del PIlas, Ilocos Sur. Marielle Gannad's farm has an elevation of 800 MASL. With a cupping score of 82.41, this Robusta-Natural variety showcases tasting notes of Molasses, Cedar, Caramel, and Hazelnut.

Our third installment of this Balai Cacao collab comes in this unique infusion of Cacao Nibs and Bohol Asin Tibuok in this Artisanal Chocolate Bark.

The cacao nibs and chocolate used in this pack is grown, harvested and made masterfully by Balai Cacao. It is also drizzled with the rare artisanal salt called Asin Tibuok that is only made by a few families from Alburquerque, a town at the southern coast of Bohol.

If you’re looking for an interesting souvenir from Bohol, hoarding these jars might not be a bad idea at all!

In our pursuit of crafting a signature drink for our coffee bar, we’re excited to bring this nostalgic yet modern take on the humble sikwate that we’re calling the Bohol Dark Cacao Latte.

What makes this a really special cup of coffee is the fact that the dark cacao chocolate used in this drink has been grown, harvested and made masterfully by our own Boholano artisan partners from Balai Cacao.

A drink that we think best represents Bohol’s fine craftsmanship with coffee beans also proudly roasted in Bohol.

We’re super psyched to partner with another homegrown Bohol maker!

These Chocolate Bark and Chocolate-Covered Mangoes are part of our ongoing collaboration from our friends Balai Cacao.

We have 2 offerings at the bar that uses sweet Cebu mangoes:
(1) Chilli Mango Chocolate Barks (mixed with Cebu Dried Mango Bits and Chilli Flakes)

(2) Chocolate-Covered Dried Mangoes

Fair warning: Highly addictive and with a really good chance of consuming the whole jar in just one sitting 😆

One more bean alert from our friends at Kalsada Coffee.

We have not just one but two varietal offerings from Kalsada Coffee - Arabica, Anaerobic Natural.

Grab a bag of this limited edition bean offering at the bar now!

We have some really good bar update! We now serve two types of espresso-based coffee that you can choose from depending on your mood for the day.

Our first bean hopper holds one of our mainstays which is a blend of two Arabica origins. This house blend pairs well with our milk based beverages.

Our second bean hopper holds our head roaster’s choice of seasonal Single Origin Philippine coffee that may vary from week to week and is on limited offering until supplies last.

Drop by and chat with us about our two coffee offerings at the bar to know more.

New Single Origin coffee alert from our friends at Kalsada Coffee!

Kalsada has always been at the forefront in championing Philippine Specialty Coffee and we’re proud to be roasting this Fine Robusta batch from their partner farm, Sitio San Roque. This farm has so much to be proud of as two of their lots were part of Blue Bottle Coffee’s very first Philippine Coffee release this year.

Learn more about Sitio San Roque and their journey at Kalsada.com.

Our take on the classic waffles comes with a twist - soft, chewy and really pairs well with coffee!

Leveling up to some grown up waffles? Try the Fresh Espresso version.

Warning: highly addictive and has created its own cult following with our favorite community 😉

We’re stoked to be featured on Tatler Asia’s article entitled Bohol Travelogue: Why Panglao Island Should Be Your Next Food Trip Destination

Check out the whole article on their site for some really good tips on where to eat here in Panglao.

When you’re feeling indulgent, pair your cup of coffee with our pastry bars.

We lovingly bake our own old school fudgy brownies that definitely brings out some childhood nostalgia. For us kids, this takes us back to some of our favorite baking memories when our mom whips up this delectable afternoon snack. Pair it with hot Long Black or Iced Brown Sugar Cold Brew.

For the non-chocoholics, our Blondies might tickle your sweet tooth fancy - moist on the inside with a hint of crunch on the outside. This is our personal favorite especially when paired with some Salted Caramel Latte or Flat White.

Explore the Philippine islands through specialty coffee roasted right here in Bohol.

In our pursuit of the island life and passion for good coffee, part of our advocacy is to support Fine Philippine Coffees through our partner coffee farmers across the regions. Help us support our own coffee farmers by tasting and enjoying some of their beans at the bar.

We’re proud to have participated in the Philippine Coffee Quality Competition (PCQC) Auction this year and we’re lucky to carry this microlot from coffee farmer Juana B. Bitongan of Ilocos Sur. We know it’s a challenge to consistently produce quality coffee but our farmers show that it is possible. Ma’am Juana’s natural-processed Robusta comes 9th in the competition this 2022 with a grade of 80.56. Drop by the bar and support Philippine Coffee through her coffee beans.

She dreams to have a coffee research center in the Philippines someday. Tere enjoys all things fermented.
