Share on Facebook Share on Twitter In November 2018, Sunstar Baguio featured the opening of Coffee Stains. The cafe’s vision is “to create a pleasant and enjoyable experience for everyone with a mission to make the coffee experience not just satisfying but also a meaningful contribution to the community. The shop also aims to promote and bring forward the coffee which is sourced locally from the region.” According to the article, Alfredo Yñiguez, Executive Vice President Camp John Hay Development Corp., said that Coffee Stains will create a coffee experience for all who visit, sampling local Arabica to international beans exclusively distributed for the Forest Lodge. Mario Benitez, Managing Director of the John Hay Coffee Services Incorporated, on the other hand, assures quality of coffee beans at the shop as he advocates to uplift the thriving industry of the region, hoping to open the market for coffee here. Coffee conversations can become more than interesting with Mr. Mario Benitez. There’s just so much to learn and be inspired by when he shares his thoughts about coffee. At one point he said, “There are more people who drink coffee than people who eat burgers.” Although you’d be amused at first, once you realize how true this situation is, what he said is thought-provoking. So, as we sat and talked even more during that visit at Coffee Stains in The Forest Lodge, Camp John Hay, we understood how important the farm-to-cup experience is to them and why they made it their goal to produce high-quality locally-sourced coffee because of the known shortage. Get To Know Coffee Stains’ Coffee Shop Menu Since they set up shop until today, Coffee Stains has been serving the best of locally-grown farmers’ coffee beans to both the locals and visitors in Baguio in all of their topnotch coffee concoctions and are doing so with such flair! And we’re more than happy to prove this to you! With Sagada as their base coffee, their Cappuccino combines strength and subtlety.

Their trendy Matcha Latté is creamy and not sweet at all. So it’s good not just for the millennials, but to the Titos and Titas who feel like millennials too.
