Andrea Tan

We are proud to announce our next ICONS box will be curated by the very first Singapore Brewers Cup Champion, Andrea Tan.

"My journey as a barista started out at the end of 2014, where I was working part-time in a café and was given an opportunity to compete in the inaugural Singapore National Brewers Cup in 2015. I thought it would be a fun and interesting way to learn new things. I signed up for the competition, flew to Taiwan twice to select coffee beans and of course, trained hard and I won that competition! The win propelled and solidified my path in the coffee industry and I’ve been doing coffee-related work ever since."

As someone who has found success so quickly after entering the specialty coffee industry, Andrea has devoted her time to breaking down barriers and stigmas, in order to improve accessibility – both for cup quality, and for professional development.

@beanadonna

The ICONS subscription box is every coffee geek's dream come true. I am now able to try some of the "top of the world" coffees and I couldn't be more excited!

@alcheng88

I admit, I have a weakness for rare, exclusive, or innovative coffees -- and I think ICONS is the perfect way for me to get my hands on these usually inaccessible coffees that the barista champions and producers are preparing for top-level coffee competitions. Can't wait to see what's coming next!

@rkesumawidjaja

Just like its name, ICONS only provides the best of the best for coffee drinkers. Those who love quality will find ICONS is taking coffee to the next level. Totally loving my first subscription box, and can't wait to get the next one.
