Who we are
About Kapé
kapé is a social venture promoting ethically sourced, farmer-first, direct trade coffee from Philippine Indigenous growers and batch roasted on unceded Coast Salish Territories (Vancouver, Canada).
We work with a small group of native farmers in the Philippine highlands to bring some of the most unique coffees from our country.
Ethically Sourced Coffee
Coffee builds relationships, and we are proud to source beans directly from farmers we know and trust. We believe in honouring the families who work hard to have a meaningful sustainable livelihood.
Coffee Roasted on Unceded Coast Salish Territories
We partner with a neighbourhood roaster in East Vancouver, on the traditional territories of the Musqueam, Squamish, and Tsleil-Waututh Nations. We roast in small batches.
Meet the Coffee Farmers
We are proud to partner with a growing community of native coffee farmers in the Philippine highlands in the Cordillera and Davao regions. Their coffees are amazing, as are their stories.

Thoughts from our Community
Talk Flavours
kapé's flavours are subtle and balanced. It's great anytime of the day!
It’s a good balance between the exotic coffees and the very dark coffees that you’d usually expect from Asian coffees.
The Philippines has unique coffees and I think it’s underrated. It’s time the world knew about Philippine coffee!
