Ground coffee can also be bought in the markets of Lipa City. Last Oct 30, some friends and I visited Garing's (a coffee grower for generations), where they display roasted Excelsa and Liberica (barako) beans in glass cases. You select and buy the beans you want, which are then ground right then and there. Fresh! The aroma is heady and heavenly.
Prices are cheaper in the market - around P170 per kilo of ground barako - compared to manufacturers like Figaro, Siete Baracos, and Merlo. However, the manufacturers offer blends and flavors not available in the market.
To brew coffee the "farm" way: in a saucepan, boil fresh ground coffee and brown sugar to taste.
