Have you ever had freshly roasted coffee? There’s little that can compare to the taste of fresh green coffee beans added to a precision roaster. As the coffee beans turn from green to a chocolatey brown the flavor intensifies. The roaster begins to intensify and enhance the coffee bean’s natural sugars. As the roasting goes on the coffee beans crack open like popcorn – the sugars begin to caramelize and give coffee the intense rich taste that it is known for.

You don’t have to go far for genuine freshly roasted coffee. We now have the very first artisan coffee roaster in Bacolod: Coffee Culture roastery.

Coffee Culture Roastery is the very first artisan coffee roaster in Bacolod that offers customized roasting and blending of local and international coffees. They recently opened shop at Lot 5, Block 15, Green plains subdivision, Bacolod City, Negros occidental. Their little shop is a coffee-house/roastery where one can come in and order packs of their fantastic roasted coffee and also at the same time, relax and enjoy a cup of their best brew.
Coffee Culture sources most of their beans from local Philippine farmers so with each cup of coffee that you enjoy, you are assured that at the same time you are helping our local farmers in Negros and in the Philippines to help sustain themselves. Isn’t that awesome?

Coffee Culture was conceptualized by Thomas Sproten and his wife Bombee. Thomas used to work with the coffee growers on Mount Kanlaon since 2004. He is an internationally certified coffee grader and taster for Q-Arabica and Q-Robusta and a Coffee Quality institute instructor.
Hearing Thomas speak about his Coffee is an amazing learning experience. For him, Bacolod Food is one of the best in the world however the quality of our locally grown coffee is not up to international standards. Most small farmers of coffee pick the coffee when it is still immature and not ready. They are more concerned about volume and quantity and not quality. From their farms, the coffee is brought to the market where it is laid out on sheets on the road where it can unfortunately absorb the flavors and taste of the exhaust fumes, the dirt and the smells of the asphalt. Ever since his time here in Bacolod as a volunteer, Thomas has worked unceasingly to elevate the quality of our locally grown coffee and now with his wife and friends establishing Coffee culture roastery, they hope people will come to value and appreciate our local coffee as well as international ones.
The interior of Coffee Culture is simple and practical. The two coffee roasting machines dominating the floor space are lovingly named “Bella” and “Scarlett” Bella is a 1kg coffee roaster while “Scarlett” is a 12 kg coffee roaster. Right in front of these two is the coffee bar where skilled baristas pour customers a cup of fresh, piping hot coffee made from the various house blends. The interior has a few tasteful decorations from Bali and Indonesia that quite enhances the urban asian minimalist look of Coffee Culture. Have a cup of coffee indoors or outdoors with a sweet treat or sandwich, Coffee culture is an absolutely great place to relax.

You are quite spoiled for choice when it comes to the wide selection of coffee, espresso and teas at Coffee Culture! They have imported Coffee beans from Singapore, Vietnam and other countries but I was particularly interested in the Coffee selection from the Philippines! From the Philippines’ Mount Kitanglad comes Coffee Culture’s “Misty Highlands” blend with taste notes of floral, nuts and Jasmine. From our very own Negros Island’s Mount Kanlaon comes the “Negros Blend” , an espresso blend of Arabica and Robusta tasting like dark chocolate and roasted nuts. From the sacred mountain of Mount Apo comes the “Sacred Mountain blend”, a coffee tasting of Dark chocolate, tropical fruits and caramel. They also have assorted, dainty and delicate artisan teas imported from Singapore.







Coffee Culture has also opened their back area and you can relax and hang out in the patio or in the garden!
The highlight of Coffee Culture Roastery is its garden seating area. The outdoor space is adorned with bamboo and other plants, providing a refreshing break from the city’s hustle and bustle. It’s the perfect spot to sit back, relax, and enjoy a cup of coffee while surrounded by nature’s beauty.
Coffee Culture’s signature desserts are also a must-try.
Their small burnt basque cheesecake is a must-try for anyone with a sweet tooth. It’s soft, creamy, and has a caramelized top that adds a lovely crunch to every bite. Pair it with their lemon square, and you’ll get a balance of sweet and tangy flavors that will leave you craving for more.
While you’re enjoying your coffee and desserts, don’t forget to take a look at the side of the wall. There, you’ll find two bright and colorful BTS KPOP murals that add a touch of fun to the place. It’s a perfect spot for taking photos or just admiring the artwork.

Not only does this coffee shop offer delicious coffee and desserts, but it’s also a peaceful sanctuary where you can relax amidst nature’s beauty.

actually, one DOES have to ‘far’ to get to this superlative coffee joint. Living in Talisay…not a place I frequent regularly. I note you’ve done another article on their new location but I can’t find reference to it here on your website NOR are there any clear directions or easily-sussed location clues anywhere else that I’ve seen. Narra Avenue? Capitol shopping? Beside Louisa’s Fried Chicken? Don’t worry–I’ll find it–despite the mystery.
chippy if you SCROLL down the article there is a complete address along with pictures of the second branch. Did you fucking fuck off reading? you have to SCROLL down to get to the comment section. You cant have missed the spot on the SECOND BRANCH. Get better glasses before complaining.
