Regular price $16.00

Though brought into the country by Catholic Missionaries in 1790, coffee only began to have a economic significance from 1840 due to the increased global demand for coffee. However, it was not all smooth sailing for the country as they faced multiple setbacks ranging from political instability to natural disasters. Nonetheless, things are looking up for Nicaraguan coffee as there is a growing focus on quality amongst farmers.

Some of the coffee growing regions in the country includes Jinotega, Matagalpa, Nueva Segovia, Managua, and Madriz. This month, our coffee comes from the Matagalpa region, near the northern part of the country. 

We taste cacao nibs, with slight caramel notes, with a medium, smooth body, and a bright starfruit-like acidity.

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 Nicaragua, 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!
