The World Thinks It Knows Ube. It Doesn’t.

Most of the ube the world consumes today — neon purple lattes, donuts, and desserts — isn’t real ube. It’s a ghost. In this documentary by Pursuit of Coconuts, we travel deep into Bohol, Philippines, the ancestral home of Kinampay ube, to uncover the truth behind one of the world’s most misunderstood heritage foods — and why Isla Eden exists. Real ube doesn’t glow. It waits — six to nine months underground, absorbing minerals from limestone-rich soil, developing antioxidants naturally through patience, stress, and tradition. This film explores how Pursuit of Coconuts and Isla Eden are working alongside Filipino farmers to protect endangered food heritage, rebuild ethical supply chains, and create community-led value-added products that allow real ube to reach the world — without sacrificing culture. 🌿 What You’ll See in This Film • Real ube harvested directly from the soil in Bohol • Why Kinampay ube is deeper, earthier, and never neon • The difference between heritage ube and synthetic substitutes • How middlemen distort the ube market — and how Pursuit of Coconuts is rejecting that system • Why ube is listed as an endangered heritage crop • Cooking traditional ube jam using ancestral methods • How Isla Eden transforms heritage crops into shelf-stable, export-ready products • Why conscious consumption matters more than ever The global ube market is approaching $1 billion, yet the farmers who protect this crop are being left behind. This is not just a food story — it’s a story of resistance, regeneration, and choosing Better Business. 🌴 Why Pursuit of Coconuts & Isla Eden Exist Pursuit of Coconuts is a Filipino-rooted social enterprise focused on ethical sourcing, heritage preservation, and community-led development.
