Coffee world’s exciting comeback regains momentum with new trends

-

THE return to some semblance of normalcy made customers want authentic, high-quality blends and coffee beverages to be delivered to their doorsteps. Bo’s Coffee has been aggressive­ly giving their customers exactly that in the last few years.

In 2018, when ready-to-drink coffee became one of the fastest-growing market segments in Europe, Bo’s Coffee has already been working on its Iced Brews. With RTD coffee known to be a healthier alternativ­e to sodas, an overwhelmi­ng response to the new drink is helping fuel this market’s premium status.

Three variants are available today: Iced Brew Mocha, Iced Brew Macchiato, and Iced Brew Latte already in stores and available for delivery. One can also avail of an assortment of flavored Iced Brew bottled coffee thoughtful­ly crafted and served in a glass bottle with its Iced Brew Sampler available online.

Specialty coffee is becoming increasing­ly, well, special

While most consumers still buy mainstream coffee blends, there’s quite a demand for high-quality coffee. Some reports align with socially conscious consumers looking for real experience­s of brewing coffee and will pay a premium for a good social story.

Bo’s Coffee has always been a proponent of the local coffee industry that every cup of our coffee celebrates and supports Philippine Coffee, partnering and adopting various coffee communitie­s in the Philippine highlands where the best of Philippine Coffee is grown.

Such is the story behind the team of Kalsada Coffee, harvesting the season’s bounty of its single-origin 100 percent Arabica Caliking Beans from the rich landscape of Sitio Kisbong in Atok, Benguet.

Bo’s Coffee puts the spotlight on Philippine Coffee and prides itself on flavor profiles found in the Philippine highlands. Beans are sourced from the mountains of Sagada, Mt. Kitanglad, Mt. Matutum, Mt. Apo, and of course, Benguet where Caliking Beans will be wrapping up its harvest by the womenled team of Kalsada Coffee.

Coffee as a subscripti­on

A burgeoning industry, the coffee subscripti­on plan is where Bo’s Coffee sends coffee to your doorsteps. While this concept has been around for a few years, the lockdowns brought it forward as coffee fans looked for ways to get their coffee fix while stuck at home.

When one subscribes to Bo’s Coffee Subscripti­on, receive a box delivery every first day of the month. The box contains two bags of coffee beans and a welcome kit detailing coffee origins, tasting notes, grind size, and brewing guide. Enjoy one flavor of coffee beans every month in this order: Atok, Ampucao, Sagada, Kitanglad, Matutum, and Apo. So, by the time the subscripti­on needs to renew, you will have tasted the best coffee beans the Philippine­s can offer.

Bo’s Coffee is a homegrown specialty Philippine coffee chain with over 100 stores all over the Philippine­s, nine in Qatar and soon 50 in the UAE.

Bo’s Coffee prides itself on flavor profiles that have striking taste and body that truly epitomize the rich diversity of their geographie­s. Its Philippine Coffee Origins beans are sourced from the mountains Sagada. Benguet, Mt. Kitanglad, Mt. Matutum and Mt. Apo. Each region, climate, and culture contribute to the distinct flavor profile found only in the Philippine­s.
