MT. APO HIGHLANDS’ CIVET COFFEE

Another reason for the Davaoenos to be proud of is the Civet Coffee which is considered to be the world’s most expensive coffee. The coffee is made from the poop of the Civet cats living peacefully around the place. The coffee is made available at the Mt. Apo HIghlands Resort, owned by Dizon Farms. 

You can enjoy the awakening aroma of the Civet Coffee for P200 per cup.

You can also take a glimpse on some of the Civet cats taken care by the management. (Sadly our team wasn’t able to look at the Civet cats live as they were said to be sleeping when we arrived. The caretaker said it is best to avoid taking photos of them, especially if your camera has a flash, for the safety of the said animals).

The resort also has rooms available for those who want to spend an overnight in the place. At morning, you will once again see the beauty of Mt. Apo right infront of you. 

THE LAKE MIRROR

Only few kilometers away from the Mt. Apo Highland Resort is the Lake Mirror which is also owned by the Dizon Farms Management. It truly served as a mirror for the Mt. Apo as you will get to see its reflection on the waters of the lake when the fogs doesn’t surround.
