The Pahimis Coffee Festival is one of the annual events in Cavite that are being looked into by prominent and simple people. The other famous events in the province, considered as the second oldest after Cebu, include the June Regada or Water Festival in Cavite City, September Kawayan, or Bamboo Festival in Maragondon; October Tinapa (Smoked Fish) Festival in Rosario, among others held in other upland and lowland towns and cities.
Amadeo, a fourth-class municipality in Cavite’s sixth district, is known as the country’s No. 1 coffee producer. The quiet town in the upland district is dubbed as the “Coffee Capital of the Philippines.”
The municipality is in the tourist map as an area where one of the best coffee in the world are being cultivated and can be procured.
Amadeo is a town frequented by both foreign and local tourists and VIPs (very important persons), including politicians, to buy the aromatic and delicious coffee blend or powder for “pasalubong” or gifts.
As pride and honor being the country’s top coffee-producing town, local officials have installed a giant coffee kettle and cup concrete image near a flagpole fronting the municipal hall here.
For the Amadeo folk, Pahimis Festival is a thanksgiving offering to God for the bounty He has given to the town every now and then.
The annual celebration of the Pahimis coffee festival aims to promote coffee for domestic and global consumption, enhance yield and restore farmer’s interest in coffee farming.
