It’s the kopitiam uncle pouring kopi from a long-spouted kettle with effortless precision. It’s the barista behind the counter of a specialty café, carefully weighing beans and adjusting the grind size for the perfect shot. It’s the entrepreneur taking a leap of faith, pouring everything into a café dream. It’s a city that has embraced both the old and the new, where a strong kopi O and a single-origin pour-over exist side by side.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eKopi, Coffee \u0026amp; Craft is a personal journey through this world. The book begins at the heart of Singapore’s coffee culture: the kopitiam, a place of early mornings and simple joys, where robusta beans roasted with butter and sugar have fueled the city for decades. I explore the history of kopi, how Hainanese migrants shaped its traditions, and why a thick sock filter remains the gold standard for brewing.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFrom there, the book moves through time, tracing how coffee in Singapore has evolved. The arrival of global chains, the rise of third-wave coffee, it captures the shift from convenience. I share my own experience of stepping into a specialty café for the first time, feeling both curiosity and skepticism, and how that moment led me down a path I never expected.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThrough every chapter, this book reflects on what coffee really means: as a beverage, a craft, and a community.
