History The firm's history dates back to 2003, when company founders, Roberto and Charita Puentespina leased farm land in Malagos in the Baguio District of Davao City where cacao trees were already in the area. Charita Puentespina then rehabilitated the farm which enabled the harvesting of cacao pods from the trees.

It was popular with commuters when the tram began carrying 1,000 passengers a day between Acton and the Uxbridge Road. Commuters could enjoy a "quick gin and water" before returning home. One of the first licensees was one George Turner. Designed in the grand Victorian style, this imposing red brick building with stucco ornaments was for many years a "rough Irish pub" until its gentrification in the early 2000s.
