Did you know that coffee trees act as a flavor sponge, absorbing scents and flavors of plants within a nearby distance? This is why coffee from different provinces in the Philippines have their own unique flavor. Kape Maria lets you taste the richness of Philippine coffee by sourcing beans from different regions all over the country.
 
Treat yourself to Kape Maria's most premium coffee roast with the delightful, light, and sweet flavor of Cordillera's Arabica coffee now with a brand new hot seal and foil packaging so that you can always enjoy freshly roasted, flavorful coffee with every brew.
 
Arabica coffee beans are by far the best type of coffee beans and are considered as superior to the Robusta, Excelsa and Liberica types.  This is very apparent in its taste, which is smoother and less acidic compared to the rest.  In fact, all the highest-graded coffee beans across the globe that have been given the speciality status are of the Arabica type.
 
Ernesto Illy, who founded his own coffee company, has said, “Coffee made from Arabica beans has an intense, intricate aroma that can be reminiscent of flowers, fruit, honey, chocolate, caramel, or toasted bread.”
 
Arabica is loaded with benefits for coffee-drinkers.  It has almost zero calories and contains anti-oxidants, including Vitamin E.  Arabica also contains less caffeine compared to other coffee and reduces risk of diabetes.
