Description

A Coffee Journal
By Roberto S. Francisco

This book is a narrative of the journey coffee travels from the time it is grown to when it is served as a brew. Combining his great interest in coffee – the core resource of his thriving business – his love for travel, and a passion for photography, Roberto S. Francisco invites the reader to join him as he traverses the country through the highlands of Benguet and Bukidnon and the lowlands of Cavite and Batangas while documenting the story of coffee in the Philippines.

The narrative also allows the reader to travel to the past through historical snippets about coffee, such as when coffee was introduced to the Philippines or the brief period in the 19th century when the Philippines had a monopoly of the worldwide coffee trade. The author shares facts, interesting tidbits, and unique practices surrounding coffee culture in the Philippines, with well-chose photographs and a concise text to make this book both informative and engaging.
