Yesterday, JM provided a welcome interruption to my rather tedious morning of reproducing duplicate and triplicate copies of the program registration papers that I busied myself with. It was to report that he and Peter discovered a kiosk at East where I could finally source out my coffee beans while both AusAid and USAid are out of stock. It's called Little Farmers Coffee.
Tonight, after the vesper service, I walked from Maranatha towards Lopues with every intention to look up the coffee kiosk. It was located behind Cafe Bob's. At 7 pm, I chanced upon the owner who was busy refilling the labeled bean boxes. He was tall and fair with deep engaging voice that encourages conversation. I asked about the varieties the shop has on display. He asked me back on what I want with my brew. Automatically I said, strong but sans the bitter taste. He recommended the medium roast Arabica for that jolting strength and chocolatey taste. I bought 50 grams each of Kalinga and Benguet Arabica and the House Blend made of Arabica and Robusta with undisclosed ratio. My blend of choice will be decided in two weeks' time when I have sampled all of the stores beans.
Yes, the store sells with a minimum amount of 50g which varies from P29 - P44. One can buy whole beans or have them ground to suit brewing preferences.
I had mine coarse enough for my french press.
