I have been a fond coffee drinker since I was in high school. I remember growing up in Batangas surrounded by enormous amounts of coffee beans. Recently, I found a company that supplies Barako coffee in a snap – Baraco Brew.
As previously discussed in my previous coffee posts, the liberica variety (barako) produces the biggest beans. It has an enormous sized grainy surface oval-shaped dark green leaves. It also produces an aromatic star-shaped white flowers. The fruit contains two reddish brown coffee beans which has a pungent aroma. Barako literally means strong. In coffee, kapeng barako suggests a very strong taste.
Mr. Mike and Mrs. Macy Cabrera, the owners of Baraco Brew sent some coffee bags to me. It comes in sealed brown craft paper at 100 g, 300 g and 500 g. Upon opening the package, you can smell the aroma of the coffee grounds.
Here’s a serving suggestion to fully enjoy your Baraco Brew:
- Boil enough water in a pot.
- Add muscovado or brown sugar and let mixture boil for a few seconds.
- Remove pot from heat. Add the barako coffee, stir and allow coffee to brew for at least five minutes before straining.
- Coffee is served black.
I think this product is a HIT for me. The packaging looks eco-friendly and sustainable. It’s tightly sealed which ensures freshness and quality on each cup. A perfect Christmas gift for coffee lovers and enthusiasts like me. I’ll definitely recommend this for my colleagues and family members.

I’m a big fan of coffee. HUGE fan. I’m an even bigger fan of coffee brands that aren’t well known, or aren’t highly advertised in stores. Already want to try Baraco Brew coffee.
we are big coffee drinkers. My husband, me, and now my older teen daughter… Can’t wait to give this one a try. Looks great
Drinking coffee is the first thing I used to do in the morning and Baraco Brew looked so good. I would love to get some and drink one with milk and sugar.
Coffee is my favorite drink to have daily! Can’t wait to give this a try!
I love the smell of a fresh brewed or roasted cup/bag of coffee. We love whole bean here so we can grind it as needed.
I like whole bean too, but honestly, I’ll take it any way I can get it. 🙂

That looks like some good coffee. You were lucky that they sent you some to try. How did you get that deal?
I like mine black most of the time. If I use milk, I am generous with it though, like you noted you are too. Coffee makes me happy. 🙂
