Bagging the Coffee Beans at Bag of Beans

My depression turned to rational mania.   I have gotten as far as Tagaytay, just to follow my irresistible quest for an exquisite coffee experience.   From Calamba,  crossing Silang, all the way to the highlands of Tagaytay.
Going to Batangas, just along Aguinaldo Highway, past Mendez crossing is a city hide-away and a haven to coffee lovers and food writers like me.   Bag of Beans dishes up not only good tasting coffees but also pies and other specialties.   The aroma of coffee whiffed up with the cool breeze of Tagaytay is just the remedy for a stressed out woman like me.

My Intrepid Search for the Prime Coffee


    A Coffee-addict, coffee-hoser,  coffee connoisseur or podhead,  whatever you call one person who consumes more than 3 cups of coffee a day would definitely love this place.  Don't get me wrong, I do love Starbucks, Seattle's Best and the likes of chained cafes. I do also love instant coffees, which our cupboards always have.   I had a coffee-maker once and have roasted coffees from the Barako type to Milan's most expensive and famous coffees.
