It Started with a Cuppa

...or a bean of inspiration. A good cup of coffee in Vietnam led Kyle to explore coffee equipment in Manila and to the realization that acquiring an espresso machine would be a big investment for some small businesses and home brewers.

That's when Cuppa came to be.

Partnering with his cousin, Aaron, who had experience building things and was familiar with manufacturing, our simple dream became our own small business: we wanted to make getting into coffee more accessible, affordable, and sustainable to enthusiasts in the Philippines. Thoughtfully designed in Manila and manufactured in China, Cuppa initially offered the Personal Espresso Machine and Blade Grinder, expanding to the Conical Burr Grinder and Variable Temp Gooseneck Kettle, and eventually carrying a wide range of accessories and other brewing equipment.
