Gracing the special media event was no less than Johnny Andrean, founder of J.CO Donuts and Coffee, who flew in from Jakarta to witness firsthand the growing appreciation J.CO has been getting from countless Filipino donut lovers. In addition, he was also very glad to be part of the festivities to celebrate the 7th and largest J.CO branch in the Philippines.

To make the store opening more eventful, J.CO treated the guests from the media to a hands-on way of making J.CO’s bestselling donuts - Green Tease, Oreology and Al Capone.  In a friendly competition, each guest was tasked to pick a donut of his or her choice then pair it with a beverage to come up with the best “Pair Me Up” donut and coffee combination.

The famous (and my favorite) Al Capone donut!

J.CO’s tremendous success traces its roots in Jakarta, Indonesia where Andrean opened a cozy donut shop in 2005. The enterprising gentleman took inspiration from the popularity of donuts and coffee in the US and decided to bring the concept to Asia.

Guests were also taught to make signature
J.CO beverages

To make it more appealing to the Asian market, J.CO only serves freshly made delectable donuts and an array of stimulating coffee prepared by trained baristas. Add to these exclusive offerings is the relaxing ambience J.CO affords its customers, making it an ideal hangout place for small meetings and intimate get-togethers.
