About this coffee

At Commune, we want to uncover Liberica’s unique qualities. We have roasted it lighter than usual to bring out its natural ripe jackfruit notes, a delicate sweetness, and a flavor so quirky and distinct, it definitely stands out. Philippine Liberica, commonly known as, “Barako,” is a species of coffee that grows in only a handful of the coffee-growing countries. Liberica trees have larger leaves, larger cherries and big beans that puff up during roasting. Barako is traditionally roasted dark, producing a very bitter and bold brew. Its size and flavor earned it its nickname. Source: commune.ph (roaster’s own copy).
