Dalisay, Jr. graced the launch.

 

“Their works have not only enriched our culture but have also inspired countless individuals to pursue their own creative endeavors,” Young said in welcoming the esteemed guests.

 

UCC Philippines General Manager Naoya Fujimoto and Business Development Director Emmanuel Torrejon introduced the history of UCC, from its origins in Kobe to its expansion to different regions across the globe.

 

UCC is the only Japanese coffee brand to be ranked among the world’s best, and it continues to introduce product innovations such as the UCC Roast Master to enhance its customers’ coffee experience.

 

The UCC Roast Master product line consists of  three blends of whole coffee beans and ground coffee and five drip coffee varieties skillfully crafted by UCC’s master-roasters through leading production techniques.
