Coffee, or "kopi," is an essential element in Singapore's dynamic food and beverage scene. In this vibrant coffee landscape, one unique variation that has been gaining popularity is white coffee. But what exactly is white coffee in Singapore? Let's delve into the distinctive characteristics and cultural significance of this beverage.
The term "white coffee" originates from the Chinese word "白咖啡," which directly translates to white coffee. It's important to note that the 'white' does not refer to the color of the coffee, but rather the method of roasting the beans. Unlike traditional coffee beans that are roasted with sugar and margarine, white coffee beans are roasted with only margarine, resulting in a lighter roast. The beans used are typically Arabica, known for their smoother and less acidic flavor compared to Robusta beans.
White coffee stands out because of its distinctive flavor profile. The lighter roasting process allows the beans to retain more of their original flavor, which can often be overpowered in darker roasts. The result is a brew that's light, creamy, and has a pronounced nutty flavor. This coffee is usually served with condensed milk, which adds a layer of sweetness and creaminess, enhancing the overall taste.
White coffee is usually prepared using a traditional method, where the ground coffee beans are steeped in hot water within a cloth sock filter. The coffee is then combined with condensed milk and sometimes evaporated milk for a creamier texture.
The serving of white coffee in Singapore varies. You can find it in local coffee shops or 'kopitiams,' where it's offered alongside an array of traditional Singaporean snacks and dishes. Recently, it has also found its place in modern coffee chains, served in a variety of ways, from iced white coffee to white coffee lattes and cappuccinos.
Singapore's white coffee embodies the city's unique blend of tradition and innovation in its coffee culture. This distinctive brew, with its light, nutty flavor, and creamy texture, offers a counterpoint to the strong, bold flavors of traditional kopi. Its increasing popularity further adds to the diverse tapestry of Singapore's vibrant coffee scene. So, whether you're a local resident or a traveler exploring the city, don't miss the chance to taste and enjoy a cup of Singapore's white coffee.

star reviewGreat coffee subscription service and very fuss-free. The beans they use are freshly roasted :)
Easy to use subscription website. Initial thoughts on the ethiopia beans for filter was that it was abit roasty, but after some dialing in it was really quite good, the blueberry notes were quite prominent. Coffee came with nice cards.
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!
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.
The subscription service is fuss-free and you can easily change your next delivery date/beans via the website. No need for multiple emails back and forth and efficiency of updating the notice is great.
Finally order my first trial coffee from Yasumi. The moment I open the package . The coffee smells so good, love the fruity taste
Great coffee and service! Flexible coffee subscriptions and their Coffee Tour lets you try many different types of beans every order
I ordered a trial subscription. The package came fast and the beans were well packed (despite being unregistered mail). The additional 60g X'mas sample was a nice surprise as it was meant to be a 120g trial and I actually really liked it. Usually do pourover or espresso at home with a hand grinder.
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.
Tried the Brazil coffee. Great nutty taste and smell. Received on same day of the roast too. Fast delivery
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😉
The ease of coffee subscription cannot get any easier and fuss free. Not to mention the coffee taste superb. The coffee packet is almost always empty.
Coffee smells is good and aromatic. Even though I left it quite long but the coffee smells still lingers l.
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.
First Time experience with coffee beans from Yasumi and will never go back to the previous brand of coffee. Yasumi all the way!!!
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!
Just brewed a cup of Tropic Daydream. Wonderful blend, so delicious. Right amount of acidity and body. Great customer service and responds to email timely. Thanks for the rebates as well.
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!
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👍🏻
There customer service was excellent, they were able to resolve the issues the raised regarding my subscription
Coffee with origins and no regrets trying out! Grind is consistent, the fragrant and beans are all fresh!
Got an extra 60g of coffee in the trial subscription to try out. Can’t wait to try out the different beans!
Had some trouble with my mailing address and customer support was very patient and responsive
Coffee is freshly roasted and I always receive them very swiftly! Appreciate the friendly and responsive customer support as well :) Very honest, local roasters!
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.
Love the freshly roasted coffee beans and warm customer service! Recommend to try!
Great coffee and customer service. They have a good selection of coffee as well.
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!
Chanced upon Yasumi on Instagram and decided to give them a try — was pleasantly surprised by an extra sample bag given and also the cards describing the coffee's tasting notes and processing description etc. Will definitely be repurchasing :)
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.
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.
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
One of my favourite coffee subscription services in Singapore: user-friendly interface, great rewards for continued subscription, and most important of all, I enjoy the beans!
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.
Updated review on 18/4: The support team has reached promptly to explain the delayed shipment. Mentioned that my shipment was delayed because I placed an order after their roasting date, which I find the explanation satisfactory. And I received my subscription of coffee yesterday. It tasted great. Excellent service recovery team Yasumi 👌 Earlier review on 14/4: My subscription is due for renewal in 1 day but my earlier order hasn't been received despite placing an order 1 week ago. I don't like to be charged for a renewal product when my earlier product hasn't been shipped out and received. I will consider changing my review when the management looks into this. I have cancelled my earlier subscription.
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!
