Kalsada Sitio Belis Washed Garnica

Kalsada is more than just a coffee company—it's a movement dedicated to uplifting Philippine specialty coffee and the hardworking producers behind it. Founded with a vision to showcase the rich potential of Filipino coffee on the global stage, Kalsada partners closely with local farming communities, providing them with the tools, resources, and opportunities needed to elevate the quality of their coffee. By investing in state-of-the-art machinery and equipment, and paying farmers over $1 per pound above Fair Trade prices, Kalsada ensures that both quality and sustainability go hand in hand.

This journey began in 2015, when Kalsada brought its dream to life through a Kickstarter campaign that funded its very first community mill in Belis. What started as a modest operation with just a handful of farmers has blossomed into a thriving collaboration with over 72 producers, all committed to crafting exceptional coffee. Through centralized processing at the Belis mill, production has grown from a humble 1.5 tonnes to an impressive 11 tonnes annually—a testament to the dedication of the farmers and Kalsada’s support.

Kalsada’s work is more than numbers; it’s a story of connection, resilience, and a shared passion for coffee. Each bean carries the care of the farmers, the innovation of the mill, and the vision of a brighter future for Philippine coffee. When you choose coffee from Kalsada, you’re not just buying beans—you’re supporting a movement that champions quality, fairness, and the rich traditions of the Philippines.
