GMA’s I-Witness: Ang tunay na Barako features Cafe de Lipa

Last September 24, the GMA News and Public affairs aired an episode of the docu-series I-Witness featuring the Philippines’ local coffee.

The documentary focused on the origins of the Barako Coffee (Liberica) in Lipa.

Mr Howie Severino interviewed our very own Jose Bryan Mercado about the history of his family’s forefathers who were instrumental in the propagation of coffee in the Philippines.

From the Macasaets to the Mercados, the tradition was kept alive leading to the founding of Cafe de Lipa in 2006.
