MIREIA

Vanilla grown in Singapore, from a backyard experiment to kitchens around the world

A husband and wife, ten vanilla vines and a love of nature. The result is Mireia.

Vanilla is one of the world’s most prized spices, and it’s usually associated with Madagascar, Tahiti or Indonesia. Mireia set out to prove it can thrive in Singapore too. Founders Charles Santoso and Juwita Maha Ranni Setiawan began in 2019 with an experiment: ten vanilla vines growing along the corridor of their HDB flat in Tampines. Their children’s fascination with plants helped spark the idea. What started as a backyard project has grown into a lifelong commitment.

Today Mireia grows vanilla at sites across Singapore, including Gardens by the Bay, and at hotels such as the Fullerton, Shangri-La and Four Seasons. The beans are grown organically and sustainably, with a zero-waste approach that uses organic fertiliser made from food waste. Pods are picked once they’re at least eight months old, and the full cycle from planting to harvest takes two to four years. Mireia handles every step itself, from growing to packaging.

The range covers whole vanilla beans, extract, paste and powder, in sizes from a two-pod pack to a one-litre tub of paste for professional kitchens. It also includes vanilla-infused 100% Arabica coffees: Vanilla Hearts, Morning Dew, Cloud Forest, Sunset Strip and Four Leaf Clover, sold as whole beans and as drip boxes. Five teas, including Queen Jasmine and Green Heaven, are made with premium tea leaves and vanilla essence. Gift sets such as the Singapore Discovery Set bring the whole range together.

What sets Mireia apart is its mission: to produce high-quality, organically grown vanilla and raise the standard for how vanilla is grown and processed. Its products are 100% natural, GMO-free and halal-certified. It supplies chefs, retailers, and home cooks directly, and CNA, The Straits Times, and Robb Report Singapore have featured its story.

As Mireia grows from local markets to retail shelves at home and abroad, its products now carry barcodes from International Barcodes. This small detail keeps stock moving smoothly from the Singapore farm to the checkout, so more people worldwide can taste vanilla grown in Singapore.
