Though coffee was introduced to Papau New Guinea ("PNG") in the 1890s, coffee production only picked up in the 1950s where infrastructure developments to facilitate the movement of coffee helped the industry enjoy a structured growth. 

Today, most of the coffee producers in PNG are smallholders, with several large estates still operating very successfully. Most of the coffee in PNG is produced in the highland regions, either in the Eastern Highlands, or the Western Highlands. The highland regions of the country provides the ideal climate and terrain for coffee to develop beautifully, bringing out complex notes and great sweetness. 

Our coffee this month comes from the Sigri Estate, located in the Waghi Valleys in the Western Highlands. This estate has the reputation of producing one of the finest Arabica coffee in the country. 

We taste dark chocolate & caramel notes, with a medium-full body, balanced with some soft fruit acidity to make this a really sweet cup.

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 Papau New Guinea, 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!
