Do you sell coffee to offshore clients? I am a Pinay living in New Zealand. If yes, how do I go about it?

Have you tried the High Grown Arabica from Baguio City, better try it and see which coffee is the best. if you will categorize coffee based on its taste (it depend with everyone’s tastebud), for me they are rank in this order:

1. High Grown Arabica - Baguio
2. Liberica/Barako - Amadeo, Batangas
3. Excelsa
4. Robusta- Amadeo (mostly)

Pricing - it depends with your target market and mentalilty of the buyer (filipino still has the colonial mentality, always patronize other country’s product - imported kasi).

great for you bikoy, you will be a young entrepreneur then?

i’m a coffee lover, and one day i hope i can have one coffee cafe (cafe is already coffee restaurant, is it?), may be like starbuck..

Goodluck with your restaurant, may be one day i can visit phillipine and get a cup of barako coffee

Kudos to you, Bikoy and to your family for the Amadeo coffee promotion. *bow.

P35? It’s ok. At least people can slurp one of the best tasting coffee blends here without the so-called ‘glitterati’ factor that posed US coffee shops expensive. Ha. ^_^

marella is right. cheap coffee is cheap relative to expensive coffee. it’s called a tangential explanation. by explaining why expensive coffee is expensive, even if costs of producing that type of coffee isn’t, i’m in essence explaining the pricing system of such commodity. because i rock like that. ohyeh!

Napanood ko sa TV na Amadeo na nga may best kapang barako sa Pilipinas, although Batangas parin ang may mas maraming naproproduce.

Sheesh, I really don’t know where she got that. Anyhoo, that cup of coffee is cheap at 30 pesos. It should be a hit.
