● What is Barraco Coffee? Barraco coffee is a traditional coffee bean from the Philippines that is very popular locally. Its peculiarity is a deep taste and rich aroma. Using rare Liberica seeds, the acidity is suppressed by deep roasting, and you can enjoy a rich taste. Liberica is one of the three major original varieties of coffee beans, and is inherited and cultivated in limited areas such as Batangas and Cavite provinces in the Philippines. It is a rare variety that accounts for only 1% of the world's coffee distribution. It also has a unique flavor that makes it different from other coffee beans due to its characteristics. The deep richness and unique flavor produced by this Liberica variety are the characteristics of Barraco coffee. The aroma of deep forests and the taste nurtured by the unique soil are unforgettable once you drink it, captivating coffee lovers around the world. Barraco coffee is a rare coffee that is cultivated as part of the coffee culture of the Philippines and is rarely seen in the Japan market. As the only specialty store in Japan, BARAKO BOX offers a taste of this special coffee and delivers a new experience. - The concept is "coffee on the eve of the revolution" Barraco coffee is more than just coffee beans, it is also a culture that includes how to make it and how to drink it. In Batangas and other Baraco regions, there are traditions and cultures associated with "Capen Baraco", reflecting the local identity and values. It is also deeply ingrained in Filipino culture and has become a symbol of Filipino identity. It is a coffee loved by Jose Rizal, a national hero of the Philippines, and other revolutionaries, and it is said that it influenced their thoughts and actions. The concept of "coffee on the eve of the revolution" that we are proposing is for those who carry on the spirit of heroes and are adventurous, who are willing to take on new challenges and change themselves. "Coffee on the eve of the revolution" refers to a coffee that gives you the courage to take a new step, a coffee that brings out the power to go beyond your limits and a time of suppressed, quiet passion, with the excitement before the energy explodes. The barako coffee they loved, as the name suggests, has a powerful flavor like "kapenbarako" (strong man). "Capen Baraco" also gave strength to our frontier spirit that never gave up on the challenge of selling Filipino coffee in Japan, which no one knew about. We believe that this coffee gives us the courage to take a new step and the power to innovate ourselves. BARAKO BOX hopes to be close to the daily lives of people who continue to take on new challenges and to help them step into the unknown together. ● Meaning of the logo Since Barako Coffee is our signature product, we adopted a simple and memorable logo design that emphasizes the letter B of BARAKO.
