Drip bags emerge as the top choice for those seeking a balance of convenience, quality, and sustainability, offering a superior coffee experience compared to instant and freeze-dried coffee.
Drip Bags: 5/5 Drip bags contain freshly ground coffee, allowing hot water to extract the coffee's full range of flavors, resulting in a richer, more nuanced cup. The slow extraction process enhances the coffee's natural sweetness and acidity.
Instant Coffee: 2/5 Instant coffee often lacks flavor complexity and aroma due to the high-temperature processes used to create it. This results in a more uniform and less vibrant taste.
Freeze-Dried Coffee: 3/5 Freeze-dried coffee retains more flavor than instant coffee due to the low-temperature drying process, but it still cannot match the depth and complexity of drip bag coffee.
Drip Bags: 5/5 Drip bags are packed with freshly ground coffee, maintaining a higher level of freshness. The use of high-quality, specialty-grade beans ensures premium quality.
Instant Coffee: 2/5 Instant coffee often uses lower quality beans and undergoes processes that diminish the coffee's original qualities, leading to a stale taste over time.
Freeze-Dried Coffee: 3/5 Freeze-dried coffee retains more flavor than instant coffee, but the significant processing impacts its freshness and overall quality. The equipment for producing high quality freeze-dried coffee is also not common accessible in Singapore.
This means your freeze-dried coffee could have been mass produced by OEM factories in China and the shipping and production time might impact the freshness of the coffee.
Drip Bags: 4/5 Drip bags are easy to use, requiring no additional equipment beyond a kettle and a cup. They offer a quality cup of coffee with minimal fuss, though slightly more effort than instant coffee.
Instant Coffee: 5/5 Instant coffee is extremely convenient—just add hot water and stir. This simplicity is its greatest advantage for those with busy lifestyles.
Freeze-Dried Coffee: 5/5 Freeze-dried coffee matches instant coffee in convenience, offering a quick preparation method with just hot water and stirring.
Drip Bags: 5/5 Drip bags are highly portable, individually packaged for freshness, and ideal for travel, camping, or office use. Their compact design makes them easy to pack and use anywhere with access to hot water.
Instant Coffee: 5/5 Instant coffee is also highly portable, with single-serve packets that are lightweight and compact. It’s perfect for quick caffeine fixes on the go.
Freeze-Dried Coffee: 5/5 Freeze-dried coffee is equally portable, offering the same single-serve convenience as instant coffee, making it a suitable option for travel and outdoor activities.
Drip Bags: 5/5 Drip bags offer control over the brewing process, allowing adjustments to water temperature and pour rate for a personalized coffee experience. This customization helps achieve optimal flavor extraction.
Instant Coffee: 1/5 Instant coffee offers little to no control over the brewing process. The pre-brewed and pre-measured coffee limits customization and fine-tuning.
Freeze-Dried Coffee: 1/5 Freeze-dried coffee also lacks control over brewing variables, offering the same limitations as instant coffee in terms of customization.
Drip Bags: 4/5 Many drip bags are made with biodegradable materials and the grounds can be composted, reducing waste. Companies are also moving towards sustainable practices and eco-friendly packaging.
Instant Coffee: 2/5 Instant coffee packaging often includes non-recyclable materials, contributing to environmental waste. The production process is energy-intensive, making it less sustainable.
Freeze-Dried Coffee: 3/5 Freeze-dried coffee packaging can also be non-recyclable, though it is generally less wasteful than instant coffee. The freeze-drying process is more energy-efficient than spray drying but still not as eco-friendly as drip bags.

Just left us a
star reviewTried out Yasumi coffee and tbh was pleasantly surprised! will continue this service, thumbs up!!
I bought their 250ml morning cup a few months ago. It is not worth the price. When it arrived, I could tell the quality wasn’t great. Coffee stains cannot be washed off or removed, and it looks terrible just after 1 month of usage. I’m very disappointed with the product.
Completely hooked! One of my joys now is to look forward to my coffee delivery and indulged in that addictive aroma. The coffee bean are roasted to perfection. No any other coffee bean come close.
Finally order my first trial coffee from Yasumi. The moment I open the package . The coffee smells so good, love the fruity taste
Subscribed to their weekly coffee beans. Beans are good, and overall a pleasant experience.
Great coffee subscription service and very fuss-free. The beans they use are freshly roasted :)
Coffee is freshly roasted and I always receive them very swiftly! Appreciate the friendly and responsive customer support as well :) Very honest, local roasters!
The delivery was fast. The beans was freshly roasted and the quality of the beans was good. I also received a free sample bag of coffee which i really appreciated
Have been a long time fan and subscriber of Yasumi coffee. Took on their subscription plan since I begun my coffee journey at home and never had to look elsewhere. They offer a wide range of flavours and origins, you can also customize your grind size if required. Freshly roasted beans every Tues and delivered to your doorstep. Highly recommended for all coffee enthusiast out there!
Coffee smells is good and aromatic. Even though I left it quite long but the coffee smells still lingers l.
Got an extra 60g of coffee in the trial subscription to try out. Can’t wait to try out the different beans!
I ordered a trial size of Brazilian coffee beans, and it arrived the day after roasting along with 60g of Tropic Daydream. Surprisingly, I found that I liked the Tropic Daydream even more! The whole beans were incredibly fresh and fragrant even before grinding. When I tried an espresso with oat milk, it tasted just like a latte from a cafe, but at only half the price and with 100% freshness. Today, experimenting with a coarser grind resulted in a lighter coffee taste. The convenience of the coffee beans subscription is a bonus; I can enjoy different beans every 6 weeks, and refills come directly to my house.
I love the coffee beans roasted by Yasumi coffee. Great taste and quality.
Tried almost all the different coffee origins available. Loved the Indonesian, Columbian and Ethiopian ones best. Delivery direct to mailbox has been flawless. Online platform for subscription changes and promo codes is very convenient. Started out wanting to get the free trial only but have been continually hooked onto their service!
Excellent specialty coffee roaster in Singapore at affordable prices. I'm always looking forward to my weekly delivery from Yasumi! The staff here are also really helpful and supportive!
Quick, responsive and helpful customer services. Quality coffee that taste and smells wonderful
Very quick response to my question that is accurately and clearly explained. The professionally designed online platform is customer centric and paid attention to details. I hope the coffee I’ll be receiving will be as good if not exceed my expectations. Pretty sure it will. Looking forward to my caffeine fix soon! Yes! Got my coffee earlier than expected. Got my caffeine fixed. Love the taste and can’t ask for more.
I like how Yasumi makes it easy for the customer to make a purchase and understand the product with its user friendly interface and clear product description. it also help that they usually give some discount code to offset next subscribed order / purchase!
Coffee subscription is affordable and convenient. Got single origin beans from Rwanda and tasting notes were true to description. Method of brewing: v60. Recommended to try.
The package of coffee comes with tasting notes and coffee info. The coffee itself smells super good and the brewed coffee I chose is very smooth and less acidic. Perfect!
There customer service was excellent, they were able to resolve the issues the raised regarding my subscription
I got a trial subscription, the morning cup, and the French press. Customer service was great, and the package came fast. I tried both Brazil and Tropic Daydream. They were super aromatic and made my day. Looking forward to trying other coffee beans for my next subscription.
Signed up for the trial and only paid $0.99 for delivery. Received the coffee promptly after a few days in my letterbox. Packaging is SO cute and they even included tasting notes of the coffee beans sent! They even included a sample of another coffee bean for free :') Coffee beans were freshly roasted and smelt amazing when they arrived too :)
Good coffee provider. Have ordered a subscription for quite a long time and they deliver in a timely manner. The quality of the coffee is really good too.
Love the coffee beans and the flexibility to choose the type of beans as well as when I want the beans to be delivered
We enjoy the latte so much brew with yasumi Colombia bean! After a trial I've decided to keep the subscription and receive the fresh high quality coffee bean regularly.
First Time experience with coffee beans from Yasumi and will never go back to the previous brand of coffee. Yasumi all the way!!!
Decided to try Yasumi as i cam across their page, got a free bag of beans to try and i tried it today. Pretty convinced to continue my subscription with them👍🏻
Coffee with origins and no regrets trying out! Grind is consistent, the fragrant and beans are all fresh!
Love the customer service from Yasumi. Have tried Brazil dark roast, Colombia and Nicaragua coffee beans. Enjoyed all 3 roasts very much. Yasumi coffee beans is of great quality. Amazing aromas!
Got the light roast, high acidity beans. Well suited to my liking! Can't wait for the next bag! Subscription was fast, love the extra goodies that came along with it like the flavor profile card and the coffee flavor wheel!
It’s so convenient to make my regular cup at home with a coffee subscription. Yasumi coffee provides a satisfying cup of coffee with great customer service. Extending my subscription is a breeze, whenever I can’t finish my coffee in time… this ensures I get the best roast possible.
I really love how Yasumi makes it super easy for us customers to buy things! Their website is so easy to navigate, and they always give clear descriptions of their products. Plus, it's awesome that they often throw in discount codes for our next order or purchase. It's like getting a little treat every time we shop with them!
bought the beans as a gift and I was told they were great! made a repeat purchase to try the others and they really loved those too. Yasumi offers a decent variety to try and I think the price point is really great for what you're getting.
I stopped buying coffee outside when I can have cafe standard (even better than most cafe) coffee at home. I really enjoy Yasumi coffee, Brazil single origin. Perfectly, freshly roasted, not acidic, and nice aroma😉
I do really love the YASUMI Coffee! It brings much much convenient for me, I have an espresso machine at home, so I could make a great cup of coffee everyday. Fresh grind the whole bean, fresh brew the double shot, fresh steam the milk, and then, a fresh cup of specialty coffee. I have order with YASUMI coffee since last year, which Im really happy with the fresh whole bean which deliver to my mail box everytime! and the teams are so cute that everytime will send you an email to inform you that your coffee is going to roast, going to deliver. And the other thing I like YASUMI is becuz they are very flexible which I could skip the slot when I need to travel. Appreciate a lot!
I've tried different coffee subscription services before, and Yasumi is the best I've used. I make espressos at home, and their beans are excellent. I've had to ask for help with my subscription before and they were always very helpful and patient.
Love the coffee, always flexible to change the coffee flavour and comes in time!
Been a monthly subscriber to Yasukuni coffee for nearly a year - love their coffee and prices as well as wonderful customer service - always throwing in some perks and giveaways. It is also super flexible to change your roasting date if you are away.
Indonesian coffee was light roasted and flavourful. Yasumi has varied coffee bean varieties to suit different tastes. Subscription model is convenient and has a lot of discount perks for regulars.
