    Prior to moving to DC we lived in Pampanga. In the supermarkets there we were able to purchase locally ground coffee in vacuum-packed packages of 500g. It was not only cheap (around 120PHP) but also really nice.

    I have looked in the main stores here, but haven't seen any Negros/Visayas equivalent.

    Have I missed a trick? Any suggestions?

    I've never ran across any local coffee beans in Negros. Not sure they even grow it here.

    There is an American at World Fitness Gym that gets local grown coffee from a local in the mountains above Valencia.
