About this Coffee
Origins: Philippines; Latin America
Processing: Pulped Natural, Washed/Wet
Deep inside the mysterious Atok mountain region of Benguet, Philippines lies the Sitio Belis Coffee Estate. While unknowingly camping on a grave site during a direct-trade trip to the farm, Sam was attacked by what he claims was a bear. But was it? Do bears even exist in these mountains? No one will ever know.
With an elevation of 1400 – 1700 masl, Sitio Belis is blessed with natural springs that flow year round. The vanilla and dark fruit notes of their beans are complemented by the chocolate caramel flavors traditionally found in Latin American coffees, creating this well-balanced and delicious blend – beautifully designed and roasted specifically with espresso in mind.
Mostra is partnered with Kalsada Coffee and is committed to their success. Proceeds from each bag will go toward their efforts to continue building trust and partnerships with local communities, investing in machinery and equipment, and paying farmers beyond standard fair trade. Together, we hope to support and encourage future generations of Filipino coffee growers and spread the word about Philippine specialty coffee.
