Coffee Empire Opens its First Branch in QC Marks the Rise of the 3rd Wave Coffee Concept in the Philippines

The brain child of Chef Ernest Joggler Martin and entrepreneur Mr. Anthony Lim, the Coffee Empire, a third wave coffee concept, aspires to the highest form of culinary appreciation for coffee. "This well-loved beverage has become an art. Each step is  specifically calculated, from the sourcing of the raw coffee beans, to the roasting of the beans, all the way to the final brew. 

 With Coffee Empire opening its doors, Filipinos will be experiencing some of the finest coffee of the world alongside the best our country has to offer," shared Coffee Empire's General Manager Ernest Joggler R. Martin.

            Sitting in an 800 sqm. property along the stretch of West Avenue, Quezon City,  the Coffee Empire offers a wide selection of high-grade, hand-picked coffee beans roasted to perfection and served at its peak where the balance of tastes, texture and aroma is achieved. Coffee enthusiasts and aficionados may look forward to its wide selection of beans from both domestic and international single origins, like Benguet Atok, Sagada, Guatemala Fancy Antigua Santo Domingo, Brazil Ceraddo SS - FC, Ethiopian Yirgacheffe OCR, and Columbia RFA Organic, among others. Apart from the coffee beverages, the Coffee Empire also serves specialty drinks such as wine, cocktails and craft beers to delight its customers.

            Inside this hip new spot, the coffee is complemented by the food served.  The Coffee Empire's kitchen serves an array of gastronomically satisfying dishes categorized as modern comfort food, comprised of various salads, soups, bites, mains and desserts, all designed to satisfy diners' cravings. Multi-awarded Chef AC Agra developed his mouthwatering dishes with the use of various Asian, Spanish and American influences, while utilizing modern French techniques that resulted in meals that aim to satisfy customers with a complete sensory experience. 

            "Through Coffee Empire, we want to share our passion for awesome coffee paired with excellent food. It is an experience that brought us all together, and we are hoping that it will also be felt by all those who will visit," Martin said.
