With my Friday being free, I was scheduled to attend the Philippine National Barista Championship at the conference room of Megatrade Hall. I was with my boss again and clearly, we were still in search for the 'espresso machine' to install for 'Bean Blends'.
We were still hesitant and worrying about going to the event because of what recently happened concerning some robbers stealing jewelries inside the mall. But this call of duty cannot be passed off so we went still. A few number of suppliers and coffee growers were present at the event and I was more than eager to try out their free samples.
It was nice to know that more and more companies are including locally grown coffee in their merchandises thus promoting the cultivation of the Liberica specie or also popularly known as 'kapeng barako'. This simply means additional and increased demand for the said coffee bean. One company is even accepting educational trips to their coffee farms located in Cavite and Batangas.
Talked to a few number of suppliers but I found the offer of Allegro Coffee much interesting although I must say that I fell in love with San Remo's modern style espresso machine.
