Papa Bear is a traditional-style blend featuring rich coffees with heavier roasts combined for a smooth and comfortable cup. The blend includes Philippine coffee and is designed to be an easy-drinking, old-fashioned style coffee that delivers a smooth and comforting experience.
Founded in 2013 by Beverly and Sam Magtanong, Jelynn Malone, and Mike Arquines, Mostra Coffee began in Beverly's kitchen experimenting with coffees from InterAmerican Coffee before expanding through public cuppings at Abnormal Wine Company. Growing from that humble garage operation in 4S Ranch to multiple San Diego locations, Mostra has become a woman owned, immigrant owned, minority owned, and disabled veteran owned business that earned recognition as a multiple award winning roastery. The company's growth trajectory demonstrates how passion and community support can transform a kitchen experiment into a thriving specialty coffee enterprise.
