Antong Malaysia's Most Historical Coffee Mill

Antong Coffee Mill, established in 1933 by Tiah Ee Mooi at No. 8A Assam Kumbang, Taiping, Perak, is regarded as Malaysia's oldest operating coffee mill. It still roasts its traditional kopi the old way - beans roasted with sugar and margarine over wood-fired stoves - producing a strong, caramelly cup of coffee. The mill occupies a historic house once home to Chen Cuifen, the 'forgotten revolutionary' companion of Sun Yat Sen, whose statue stands outside. Visitors can tour the site, view artefacts on coffee-making and Chen's life, and sample or buy the roasts.
