Local suppliers and community partners

Cooperative

Cordillera Arabica Collective

Atok & Sagada, Cordillera

Forty-two smallholders wash, dry, and mill Arabica on shared patios. Kabesera takes named lots — washed Benguet and Sagada medium — and prints the farm on the espresso board. The living doors in Benguet are ACOGMAC in Atok, the Kibungan Arabica Coffee Growers MPC, TOCAGMA and BACOGA in La Trinidad, and the provincial Benguet Arabica Coffee Enterprise (BACE) trading floor in Wangal. Families keep the parchment price.

Lipa Barako Growers

Lipa, Batangas

Third-generation Liberica growers on the Lipa slopes. We buy ripe cherry, not mixed bags, so the Pinoy latte and the long black still carry that wild Batangas finish.

Cooperative

Sultan Kudarat Robusta Circle

Isulan, Sultan Kudarat

A Mindanao cooperative that sorted Robusta into espresso-grade lots. Their beans hold the crema in our House Blend and keep the price honest for the farmers who pick them.

Cooperative

Habing Rizal Multipurpose Cooperative

Morong, Rizal

Habing Rizal is Kabesera’s named weave desk in Morong — a CDA multipurpose cooperative of handweavers, not a factory label. Fibre is Philippine abaca (Musa textilis) grown in Bicol, graded, then warped and woven on backstrap and pedal looms in Barangay San Guillermo. Members keep the yard price. Kabesera buys finished totes, eco-bags, and twine; handles that fail come back to the same loom. The name follows habi — to weave — and the province that hosts the house.

Artisan

Cordillera Weavers Table

Bontoc & Baguio

A table of weavers supplying napkins, runners, and merch totes. Patterns stay with the community; Kabesera pays for the yard, not a factory print.

Sampiro Rd., Brgy. Plaza Aldea, Tanay, Rizal

Romeo and Nancy Casco grow cacao on Sampiro Road, Plaza Aldea, Tanay. Kabesera pastry, dessert, and the bar take the beans as tablea, drinking chocolate, and house chocolate — a named Rizal lot, not a blend we cannot point to.

Moolk Creamery

Moolk Farm, Tanay, Rizal

Moolk Creamery Corp milks at Moolk Farm in Tanay. Kabesera pastry, dessert, and the bar take their fresh milk, chocolate milk, milk tea, yogurt, and pastillas — a cold chain we can name, not a tetra we cannot.

Cooperative

Tanay Highland Coffee Samahan

Sampaloc & Marilaque, Tanay, Rizal

Rizal is not a bulk coffee province. It is a thin belt on the Sierra Madre: Liberica and Robusta under shade, a little Arabica where the Marilaque climbs. The samahan is Kabesera’s Locally Yours desk for those lots — barangay growers around Sampaloc and the uplands, kawa-roasted the way Tanay cafés still do it. We do not pretend this is Lipa or Atok. We print Tanay on the board when a sack is honest. History sits next door: in the 1820s Paul de la Gironière planted coffee at Jala-Jala and won the Sociedad prize for six thousand trees. The mountain never forgot; the trade did. This circle is the remember.
