- What is Liberica, and can it be a great coffee? Habitual Coffee, a great Manila coffee company sent over a bag of their latest roasted coffee: A red honey processed Liberica from Batangas, right here on the island of Luzon. Hopefully brewing it will help answer that question.
On this tasting journey, we'll be brewing the Liberica specialty coffee as a V60 pour over, as an espresso, and as an espresso with milk. And to celebrate Philippine National Independence day 2021, we'll also explore what this coffee means in the greater scheme of sustainabilty and the future of Philippine coffees. Join us.

• Is This A Great BARAKO... - แนวปฏิบัติและการใช้ชีวิต
The Batangas Brew Kapeng Barako brand made me love kapeng barako that I already find it better than arabica. But when I tried other kapeng barako brands, I find them so different. I think Kapeng Barako is indeed a flavor profile of certain liberica beans but not all liberica are kapeng barako. For one, the liberica of Malaysia is quite different than we have in Batangas as there is no bitterness at all though the coffee is so dark.
great brewing uncle!
🙏🙏
We are farming liberica here in La Union. I opted to process it as washed. Thank you For helping out in making liberica known.
Our pleasure! Let me know when your coffee is available and I'd love tyo try it.
Kapeng barako coffee drinker here❤️❤️❤️❤️😋😋😋😋😋😋
Hi kayo I just saw this now. I did try to brew the usual barako/liberica before. I actually like the unique taste, however my main problem is it has a lingering soil/clay after taste, and also it ruins my stomach for some reason. With the one you tried, did you find anything similar with the standard barako coffee? If it's serious coffee, I wonder what's preventing it to proliferate, don't you think it has a very good potential in terms of growing specialty grade coffee without needing a high altitude? I also love specialty robustas I've tried, however it also ruins my stomach, probably because it's double the caffeine.
This was certainly a very well processed coffee with very little defect, like those you are describing. I've tasted a number of liberica/barako coffees, and they do often have such defects from poor processing. I would say that it's this problem that's been keeping this varietal from really taking off.
Watch our video on the robusta too, so you can see how we adjust brewing methods and recipes to account for the aggressive nature of robusta coffees.
@@HoneycombManila I see. Yes most probably I'm tasting those defects. If I get the chance I'll try that specialty liberica. Yes I also watched the robusta episode. Hopefully we could also develop good quality robusta and liberica beans so we could utilize both low lands and high lands. I believe Vietnam is also doing something similar with their robusta so they could slowly move up from producing instant coffee grade beans.
kudos to Arnold of Samahang Magkakape ng Lipa for producing this coffee!
bravo! 👌👌👌
Hello, where can I purchase this coffee? It seems like it's not available in Habitual's website
It's an early look, I believe, so it should be coming soon there, and via their instagram
Man, I'm a sucker for the music on these past 2 coffee videos! Haha
glad you're enjoying! going to do more of this, hopefully
Tried barako. To me it has a burnt , not really strong, taste. I wanted to like it, but it was disappointing. I love Dark roast (Starbucks French Roast and The Coffee Bean and Tea Leaf) .Arabica beans are my go to ).
I was doing a search for Barako espresso and a bit saddened by this video. I saw how dirty the panels of the Decent were. . . Also, please, when you do a taste test of an espresso, do take the extra step of stirring it a bit. It helps with truly getting the idea of how the espresso tastes. You don't want different tasting sips rather a uniform and balanced taste.
On a positive note, I hope we can introduce Philippine coffee to more people.
that decent reflective panel is impossible to keep clean, which is why decent is thinking of phasing it out. Also, we did stir the espresso off camera.
Dude! Why do you have to review a coffee that was just roasted two days ago?
It was just the way it is with our National Independence day. the coffee was really good though, despite it being young. I was also banking on a different chemical make up for the liberica, it being a denser bean and thus potentially degassing quicker.
And that's the key thing when dealing with these "other" coffees. They play by different rules vs the standards set by arabica brewing and therefore must be approached with a very open mind.
All that said, we're gonna do another video on this coffee, once it's been a week.
exactly. amateur move.
