[CLOSED] Parallel (Raffles City)

Coffee was really great!! Love it a lot and also glad that I managed to got it on an offer on Shopee so it only cost me about $2! Recommend this to all coffee lovers out there!

Caught these Bottled 𝙄𝙘𝙚 𝙒𝙝𝙞𝙩𝙚𝙨 (~$21 for 6 on sale) while they were on promo, so this was a STEAL. 😛

I must say it’s not the silkiest texture, coming off rather choppy at times compared to other brews I’ve had. Starting off light before crescendoing to a heightened strong flavour, the evidence of coffee here was pronounced toward the end.☕️

With bottled brew deliveries popping up everywhere at steep prices (I’ve seen $10 a bottle...) it’s hard to argue that Parallel’s aren’t competitively priced, which I feel is their main pull factor. 🥛

Got this as a gift from my friends (thank you!), and was happy that I got to try the coffee from parallel. Received 2 variations: 1) white & 2) oat milk. These were smooth with a relatively strong coffee taste, and I liked that they weren’t too milky. It was nice to have good coffee at home amidst the Circuit Breaker :)

Are you Team Black, Oat or White? ☕️

Many might have read that @parallelsg closed down their ORP outlet recently, while their Raffles City outlet is temporarily closed. But they have shifted entirely to home deliveries for now. In a combined effort to #savefnbsg, a few of us decided to get this mix & match cold brew bundle where you will receive 2 bottles of the different flavours each.

Actually, I am usually neither. Black cold brew usually comes across as bitter and acidic for me, which in this case, I felt that the acidity was rather intense. I could still taste slight acidity in the White, although I wouldn’t mind with the soft touch of milk. Personal favourite was the Oat, a concoction of oat milk from Oatly and their Single Origin Cold Brew. Not too sure why both the white and oat had an additional alcoholic note, but I enjoyed the extra nuttiness and brown sweetness in the Oat.

Each bottle is brewed and bottled fresh on the day of delivery, without any added preservatives or stabilisers, hence can be kept chilled up to 6 days. They have various bundle options such as all black, white, oat, mix & match of 2/3 flavours, and even weekly or bi-weekly subscriptions to fix your caffeine addiction. You can specify the cold brew to be sweetened or unsweetened too. Check out their page for more information on delivery timings and charges.

Nothing beats the heat than a bottle of cold coffee. Medium bodied with a tad of acidity but with balanced flavour. Get them delivered in a pack of six.

Not the most flattering picture, but this is one of the better açaí bowls I’ve had! It’s not as sweet as the others, but you can request to have honey drizzled on top of it so no worries if you have a sweet tooth. 😋

The açaí has a creamy texture which I like, and the granola goes super well with it. ✨ I will be back!

This branch is at the basement of Raffles City (I think it used to be Jollibean there?), so it’s really convenient too.
