Comising Coffee

Reviving the Legacy of Comising

Coffee was first introduced to Benguet by Spanish governor Manuel Scheidnegal y Sera, who forced the Igorot tribes to cultivate it. While most rebelled, Comising, a brave and wealthy leader of the Ibalois in Kabayan, saw its potential. He promised to buy all the coffee his people grew and manage dealings with the Spaniards. By 1902, Kabayan became a major coffee exporter to Spain. Though production has since declined, Rural Rising aims to restore Kabayan’s coffee legacy. Today, centuries-old Typica trees still thrive, and we are proud to offer coffee from this rich heritage.

To maintain its robust flavor and freshness, store Comising Coffee in an airtight container in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight. Once opened, for the best taste, it is recommended to consume the coffee within 1-2 months. Avoid storing it in the refrigerator as moisture can affect the beans’ quality.

Comising Coffee has deep roots in the Philippines’ coffee culture, hailing from regions where farmers have preserved traditional cultivation techniques passed down through generations. Often enjoyed during community gatherings and harvest seasons, this coffee has become synonymous with Filipino hospitality. It is said that José Rizal himself sipped on a similar blend while writing his revolutionary works—a testament to its power to fuel both body and mind.

Comising Coffee is rich in antioxidants, supporting cellular health and reducing inflammation. Its moderate caffeine boosts mental alertness, energy, and physical performance. Regular consumption may lower the risk of Alzheimer’s, Parkinson’s, and improve heart health by promoting good cholesterol (HDL).
