Last May 8, Hausbrandt Caffé , an Italian Coffee brand with branches in 70 countries all over the world, made its mark in the Philippines with the opening of its first branch in the country located in Cebu.Unlike the many coffee shops in the metro where coffee is commonly brewed through an Espresso Machine, Hausbrandt Caffé boasts the old Italian and traditional way of preparing coffee with a touch of Filipino hospitality. What differentiates them from the other coffee places is their Brew Your Own Coffee (BYOC). It’s an interactive and refreshing take on enjoying coffee — an experience worth trying!Hausbrandt uses premium Nero quality Arabica beans brewed in a Bialetti Cafetera. With their Brew Your Own Coffee (BYOC), Hausbrandt Caffé’s experienced baristas will walk you through the coffee brewing process using a lama genet (Italian for Little Machine) and the importance of brewing coffee. From the interaction, you’ll learn how opening or closing lids will matter in the coffee’s final taste.At P350, you can experience Hausbrandt’s signature Brew Your Own Coffee (BYOC) experience that’s good for 2 servings. You can choose between Café Latte, Americano, Expresso and Capuccino. The coffee aroma distinctive of the brand is subtle and stimulating. You and your family or group of friends will surely enjoy the interactive coffee experience unique to Hausbrandt.Aside from coffee beverages, Hausbrandt Caffe also serves sandwiches, cakes, pastries, juices, hot chocolate and their own Hausbrandt tea.More about this new coffee and dessert place in the blog: www.thelifeaholics.com

I'm not much of a coffee drinker but I think my Hausbrandt experience will change my mind.Its the Italian way of making coffee, thats their specialty. We tried the Brew-your-own coffee for 350php. It also comes with a free shirt. It's good for 2 mugs of coffee. We tried their Cafe Americano and Cafe Latte. The barista explained and showed us how to make the coffee using their cafetera. On our next visit, if we decided to have the brew-your-own, we would be able to do it ourselves. The latte was excellent. No bitterness or aftertaste.I also like their blueberry cheesecake. Not too sweet and the price is also okay. It's only for 120ph.Nice ambience. It reminds me of a Kaffe haus in Europe.I'm going to try the Affogato on my next visit.

The place alone is great as it is. The interior decor and fixtures are simple and classy. The place is huge and has a good lighting. Their blueberry cheesecake is tasty. It's better compared to the other cheesecakes in other cafes. The portion is big and really delish. We tried the Brew Your Own Coffee BYOC for P350. It's not bad for the price because you get 2 cups of your choice from Americano, Latte and Cappuccino. We had Americano and Latte. The barista will walk you through the process the first time, therefore you will also get informal training on how brewing from a small machine works. It was a fun experience and they said that when you order the BYOC the next time, you can do it your own without the help of their barista. Wow, it's something I look forward to soon. Overall, I love Hausbrandt and I have already recommended it to my friends to check them out.
