Visited the new Shift Coffee Concepts, which had recently opened its doors just two weeks before the start of the Circuit Breaker at Southbank just a short distance away from Lavender MRT Station and also run by the same folks behind Upside Down Coffee Alternatives.
While specialty coffee brewed from an espresso machine is available here, the highlight at Shift Coffee Concepts will be their Syphon Brews, which features beans of various origins carrying varying different flavour profiles.
Was recommended the La Promesa, which originated from Colombia; quite surprised how this supposedly fruity coffee comes with a punchy body for a full-on flavour, yet with a clean finish — a difference from the usual hand-brewed coffees that feature a fruity profile which are typically lighter in its flavour profile. Also liked how the space is clean in its design language and situated at a location less-travelled by most — certainly a spot that works out for a quiet morning cuppa!
