I sometimes wonder if I’m living under a rock because many things flow under my radar. For example, I didn’t know Muji, that popular Japanese retail store, had a coffee shop until recently. I checked it out when I had to go to BGC recently for an errand.

Please note that this will not be a full-blown review, as I only managed to order one cup of coffee.

☕ Coffee shop – Muji Coffee drinks

They use coffee bean blends from Brazil and Honduras that are certified by the Rainforest Alliance, an international non-government organization. This NGO advocates for the rural people’s human rights promotes rural prosperity and livelihoods, creates a natural-based solution for climate change, and fights against deforestation.

Cafe Mocha

Price: USD 1.87 (PHP 110)

Despite being an avid coffee shop customer, I have always found coffees from these establishments to be overpriced. Thus, it was somewhat surprising to me to see the low price point of Muji Coffee. A small cup of cafe mocha for $1.87, are you kidding me? This drink is one of the most expensive when you go to a regular coffee shop. At Starbucks, for one, a 12 oz (tall) cup of cafe mocha is $3.14 (₱185).

I’m not sure why Muji’s drinks are cheap when the store itself sells expensive products, e.g., a $14.01 (₱825) pillow. And considering how delicious the coffee was (yes, it was marvelous, I should have gotten a bigger cup), the low price became all the more mind-boggling for me. But I’m not about to complain; a cheap and delicious coffee? I say take my damn money.
