Considered by many as the birthplace of coffee, the coffee from Ethiopia is well known for producing exceptional cups of coffee, with each region tasting different from one another. Some of the coffee growing regions in Ethiopia includes HarrarYirgacheffe, and Sidamo, as well as Limu and Jima.

This time, we have decided to feature coffee from the Guji Wubanchi station located in Mesina, which borders the renowned Yirgacheffe district. The region’s high altitude, consistent rainfall, fertile soil, and rich local expertise all contribute to the exceptional quality of the coffee. Furthermore, this lot of coffee had undergone a unique 'Supernatural' processing method in contrast to the usual natural process.

In traditional Ethiopian natural processing, cherries are dried in a thin layer on raised beds, exposed to sunlight. The ‘Supernatural’ method, however, involves drying cherries in a thick layer inside a semi-permeable box, restricting sunlight while allowing airflow. This extends the drying time and encourages natural fermentation of the sugars in the cherries, resulting in a cup that has highly pronounced flavours.

Expect floral and berry notes such as blackberries that is complemented with a sweet citrus flavour of orange, finishing with chocolate, in an intensely sweet cup with a long aftertaste.

As our #dYScover beans are roasted specially, and separately from the rest of our offerings, we only have limited quantities per month! If you have ever thought or wondered about specialty coffee from Ethiopia, do make sure you give this a try soon!

There are so many different types of coffee grown in various regions of the world, with each region tasting very distinct from one another. 

#dYScover, by Yong Seng Coffee, is our attempt at letting you experience high quality/specialty coffee from the various coffee-producing regions of the world. Read more about specialty coffee here!

Join us on this journey as we bring in coffee from different regions every month, as we explore the world of coffee together.

A taste of heritage

and fresh perspectives

Yong Seng Coffee specialises in Singapore's favourite - traditional Nanyang coffee, a.k.a. kopi (meaning coffee in Malay). Being the lifeblood of many Singaporeans, we have served our many blends of traditional kopi for over 40 years, in addition to a selection of dry-roasted coffee of various origins.

Today, embodying heritage with every bag, we strive to keep our family's legacy and Singapore's kopi culture alive, while continuously working to expand and refine our offerings to cater to your ever-evolving preferences.

Testimonials

Tried the Arabica Blend and it changed my perspective of white coffee. Ditch your 3-in-1 and brew your own coffee with Yong Seng this CB period.

I ordered all the 6 choices (of Drip Bag Coffee) to try. Arrived yesterday and tried the Signature Blend #1 this morning. Clear indication of roasted & packing dates on each packet. Fresh and full of aroma, highly recommended. Tks!
