Motorcycles and coffee are virtually inseparable. From tambikes to short breakfast runs, to epic adventure journeys, fuel and flavor experiences ride in tandem.

This is why VIPs of the Motoworld Philippines megabooth are in for a treat, beyond the huge discounts and promos at this weekend's Makina Moto Expo 2025.

Their bike and bike gear upgrades will also come with a free coffee experience level-up at the The Gourmet Farms Coffee Science Labs at DLSU Manila, powered by Gourmet Farms, Inc. and Farm Fresh Milk Philippines.

spot.ph's February 2024 feature article "DLSU's Coffee Science Class Proves There's So Much Behind Making the Perfect Brew" was recognized as 'Outstanding Feature Story on De La Salle University' at the recent Lasallian Scholarum Awards (LSA).
The true essence of the widely-popular elective course was clearly captured and masterfully articulated by Christa De La Cruz, a former DLSU Chemistry major and current associate editor at Esquire Philippines. "I used to separate these two aspects of my life—chem and writing—but now here we are.", she said. The universe indeed unravels in mysterious but fascinating ways.
