Your daily eats become green and nutrient-enriched

Wonders of Kape Barako

It’s critical for coffee to be of very good quality and to be freshly and properly roasted depending on the bean type and origin. According to The Figaro Group’s (TFG) Roast Master, Randy Catapang, using quality beans and following the best practices in roasting them can improve a person’s “energy levels and reaction time, being a positive fat-burning supplement by increasing metabolic rate, contributing to daily requirements of essential vitamins, and can even lower risk of getting Type 2 diabetes up to 50 percent as well as boost life longevity.” To illustrate, have you ever wondered whenever you’re drinking Figaro Coffee’s signature house blend that the taste is just irresistible? It’s because they have been incorporating Kape Barako in its blend. This gives it a smooth lingering flavor with a hint of sweetness at the end with no bitter aftertaste. Their roastmasters make it a point to inspect every small detail from the start until the moment they’re crafting your coffee, ensuring that every customer would get their much-needed wake-me-up boost while also making wonders for their health.
