In a search of good coffee? Well, doesn't matter if you're a fan of handcrafted coffee or old fashion kopi-o. And even if you’re not a caffeine lover, there's bound to be something one would enjoy at La Kopi Singapore 2019. We had an eye-opening caffeinated experience at the inaugural La Kopi Singapore event that happened on 25 - 27 January at the Singapore Expo. From hands-on activities, trying out local and foreign coffee roasters and to pair it with local delicacies! We had the chance to sit back, relax and have a cuppa while learning more on the coffee industry and being a part of the community.

Coffee aficionados bonding over the various brew served at Homeground coffee and roasters
Enjoy coffee from familiar names such as Homeground, Coffee Break and Pyroast. We highly recommend trying coffee brewed from Homeground's award-winning Sidamo Ethiopia beans.

Trying the signature 3 in 1 (choice of filter coffee with Cascara tea and Cold brew ice cream
It starts off with the fragrance of watermelon, followed by the sweetness of dark red plum and ends off with the lingering taste of black tea.

If espresso isn't your thing, go local with Coffee Break and PYROAST. Coffee Break served traditional favourites such as Nanyang coffee and their best sellers include Sea Salt Caramel Latte, Mint Lime Rose Red Tea and Irish Cream Vanilla Milk.

But because we love coffee, we tried their Dirty Chai – chai with espresso
Non-coffee lovers, we've got you covered. There are exquisite chocolate drinks from Grounded Pleasures to savour on and refreshing tea from Bistrotea as well as Petale Tea.

For those who felt peckish, there's no way one could go hungry at this event. There’s a wide selection of local delicacies and snacks! We went for the traditional snack, dragon bread candy from Nanyang Flavours. Usually, bread candy is served with peanut filling but here, we had the chance to try sesame and kopi filling!
