Authentic Ipoh White Coffee
A rich, creamy Malaysian coffee with a unique roasting technique
Welcome to the world of Ipoh White Coffee, a Malaysian treasure that's captivated coffee lovers worldwide! This iconic beverage originated in the 1950s in Ipoh, Perak, when local coffee makers experimented with a unique roasting process to create a smoother, less bitter brew.
What sets Ipoh White Coffee apart is its distinctive roasting method. The coffee beans are roasted with margarine, giving them a lighter color and a rich, buttery flavor. This process results in a less acidic brew with subtle caramel notes. The coffee is then finely ground and brewed using a special cloth filter, creating a strong concentrate that's mixed with condensed milk for a creamy, indulgent experience. The result is a smooth, aromatic coffee that's both comforting and invigorating.
