Coffee Culture in Malaysia

Malaysia’s coffee culture can be traced back to 1800s where locals have a sip of “kopi-o” while having some toasts and half-boiled eggs in a kopitiam. While the culture of kopitiam is still firmly rooted in Malaysia, the coffee culture here had already taken a big step forward in past 15 years.

Now, people don’t only enjoy their coffee in the kopitiam whereas in some modernized and westernized coffee shops. The booming of home-grown franchises and gourmet outlets serving everything from ‘Italian-style’ coffee to intriguing specialty coffees, brewed with beans from every corner of the world had truly became a trend. People would spend ten or more bucks just to enjoy these freshly brewed beans, having a pleasure noon tea-break time.

A wise Italian man once said, coffee should never be drunk alone. While there’s great personal pride to be gained in making a great ‘cuppa’, coffee houses are still the epitome of passion for this drink and a much-sought-after social aspect of our life. It is to this end that our home-grown coffee baristas have come a long way from being merely figures behind the bar to being true coffee connoisseurs, skillfully preparing our coffee just the way we like it!
