Centro Launches its First Barista Series with the Pandan Coconut Latte

Some drinks wake you up. Others transport you somewhere.

Introducing the Pandan Coconut Latte, available from 21st May to 21st June, the very first release from Centro Espresso & Matcha Bar’s new Barista Series — a collection created to explore flavours that feel familiar yet unexpected.

Served over ice, this refreshing creation brings together rich espresso, creamy fresh milk, fragrant pandan-infused coconut cream and deep caramel notes from gula melaka for a drink that feels like a little tropical escape in a cup.

The first sip arrives smooth and velvety, with the aromatic scent of pandan gently rising before the espresso follows with its roasted warmth. The coconut cream lends a luscious silkiness, while the gula melaka adds notes of toasted caramel and soft smoky sweetness that linger pleasantly on the palate.

Visually, it’s just as inviting. A delicate light green hue runs through the drink, giving it a fresh, almost cloud-like appearance. What makes pandan special is its ability to be comforting without being heavy. Its floral, vanilla-like aroma pairs naturally with coconut, creating a flavour profile that many grew up with, but here it takes on a more modern expression alongside espresso.

The result is layered yet easy to drink. Sweet but balanced. Creamy but refreshing. Think of it as your favourite local flavours meeting your daily coffee ritual.

Whether you're stopping by before a movie, taking a break from Orchard Road, or simply looking for something beyond the usual latte order, the Pandan Coconut Latte is made for sipping slowly and enjoying every chilled, aromatic mouthful.

Because sometimes the best coffee moments are the ones you didn't expect.
