Frequently Asked Questions
Where is your farm located?
Our coffee farm is located in Pontevedra, Capiz within the beautiful islands of the Philippines. The province of Capiz is on the island of Panay centrally located in the heart of the country in Region VI of the West Visayas. Auntie Tina’s Farm is home to Capiz Coffee Roasters and open for public visits. Reach out on our social media to book a time and day to have coffee with us on our coffee farm.
What kind of coffee do you sell?
That’s a two fold answer. In the Philippines we specialize in Robusta from our farm, which is a strong, earthy, and bold coffee. We roast to either medium or dark finishes. This coffee is roasted in Pontevedra and distributed within the Philippines.
However, our stateside operations feature specialty coffee from all over Asia such as China, Myanmar, Indonesia, Philippines, and many more places in the region. These particular coffees are processed through a Nordic style of roasting, which is a lighter finish showcasing a more fruity experience. These specialty coffees are roasted in Greenville, South Carolina and distributed within the United States.
Where can I buy your coffee?
In the Philippines, you can order from our social media channels on IG or FB or visit Auntie Tina’s Farm in Pontevedra, Capiz. Additionally, you’ll find our coffee served at place in Capiz such as Cafe Felisa, Dapog Native Coffee Shop, Islands Hotel, Cafe Revolućion, Espacio Resort and Parola Restaurant at Flat Rock.
In the US, you can order online here on our website store and we’ll be happy to send it to you nationwide.
What makes your coffee special or different from other coffees?
We specialize in Asian coffee. In the Philippines, we grow our own Robusta coffee that is hand picked, hand processed and hand crafted by our team of local farmers.
In the US, we offer specialty coffee from select farms all over Asia. We only work with farms that have the same standards in the speciality realm to ensure the best experience for our customers.
Can I order whole bean coffee?
Yes! We package whole bean coffee in our retail bags. However, we would be happy to grind some for you upon request at no extra charge.
How fresh is your coffee?
Because we do small batch roasts, our coffee is ALWAYS fresh.
Which is the best coffee to buy?
In our view, coffee is very much a personal experience. Therefore we leave preference up to our customers. However, we do share our knowledge and recommendations based on their interests to help them decide which variety best suits their taste. That’s the beauty of coffee, there’s something for everybody!
