I'm attracted to this outlet's down-to-earth, homey, and welcoming ambiance. At one glance, it lacks the commercial appeal of Starbucks and Coffee Bean. However, it is this very point that sets it apart from those commercialized coffee outlets that sell over-priced coffees.

There are two species of Borneo coffee, the Liberica and the Robusta. Coffee plantations are located at lowland hilly areas of southwestern Sarawak, mainly the Bidayuh (Land Dayaks) villages and Chinese farms. In Kuching and Samarahan, coffee plantations are found in Lundu, Bau, Serian, Padawan, Asajaya, Simunjan, etc.

Green coffee beans are processed naturally by being sun-dried. Then, coffee beans of the finest quality are hand-selected and roasted in small quantities with specialized roasters. Freshly roasted coffee beans are 100% pure, clean, and contain no preservatives. Whole beans or ground coffee are then vacuum-packed to retain their quality and freshness.

Liberica Coffee has a smooth, mellow flavor and exotic aroma. It tastes really good either as black coffee or with added sugar and milk. Robusta Coffee has a soft and mild flavor with a nice, strong aroma and is typically served black.

This is Ice-blended Cappuccino with Condensed Milk.

Here's Caffe Latte, served in a quaint mug and a piece of peanut cookie.

These are coffee gift packs that we bought for our family and friends.
