This month marked an exciting milestone for Karma Group as we proudly hosted our inaugural Coffee Masterclass at Sarang Lounge, Karma Kandara. Designed as an immersive journey into the world of specialty coffee, the event set a new benchmark for experiential beverage programming across our properties.
The Coffee Masterclass brought together three of Asia’s most respected experts: globally acclaimed Singaporean barista Ryan Tan, World Siphon Champion and a three-time Singapore Barista and Latte Art Champion, along with world-level competition judges Kammie Hui from Hong Kong and Sutinee Amornpatanakul from Thailand.
Participants were fully immersed in the rituals of coffee preparation: hands moving in rhythm with the experts, steam rising from perfectly calibrated milk, and the delicate choreography of latte art unfolding beneath their fingertips. Classical brewing methods blended with structured cupping techniques, while conversations flowed as freely as the espresso.
This sense of community lay at the heart of what made the masterclass so resonant. Sarang Lounge became a space for meaningful dialogue between experts and enthusiasts, where curiosity met expertise and guests evolved from passive consumers into active participants in coffee culture.
For me, curating this experience represents an important chapter in our ongoing mission to elevate beverage culture within our brand. Coffee is no longer just a drink; it is an evolving craft shaped by technique, terroir, and storytelling, and creating a platform where guests can engage, learn, and connect through these elements reflects the direction of our F&B philosophy.
The masterclass signals Karma Group’s ambition to build a recurring series across its properties, celebrating artisans, expanding knowledge, and enriching guest experiences through the universal language of great coffee.
