Muscovado Producer Area – Bais / North Canlaon Side
Description
General traditional sugar-product area for map context where exact producer pins can be added later. In Canlaon, the mountain city on Kanlaon’s slopes, the highest farming country on the island. Muscovado is whole-cane sugar boiled down and dried with the molasses left in — brown, damp, faintly smoky, nothing like refined white. Producers here work in open pans at small scale. Buy it in blocks or loose by the kilo where it’s made; it costs more than white sugar and is worth the difference.
Tips
Highest farming country on the island and correspondingly cool — the market draws from barangays most visitors never reach. Combine with Kanlaon"s northern trailheads if you"re hiking.
