Antong Coffee Factory, Taiping

Antong Coffee Factory, Taiping (31 August, 2015)




Antong Coffee Factory (GPS: 4.85509, 100.73292) is a coffee factory in Assam Kumbang, Taiping. It produces the Antong Café brand of coffee. Visitors to the coffee factory get to see the factory equipment preserved from time past. The Antong Coffee Mill is said to the the oldest coffee mill in the country. It calls itself "Malaysia's Most Historical Coffee Mill".

Antong Coffee Factory, originally written Aun Tong, was established in 1933 by Mr Tiah Ee Mooi. The factory produces the local-style coffee that goes to all the coffee shops, particularly in northern Malaya, to places such as Penang. However, the factory has since widened their product range, and today also sells the ever-popular "white coffee". And riding on the popularity of the Musang King durian, it has also produced a Durian White Coffee.

Next to Antong Coffee Factory is Aun Tong, a house that is associated with Dr Sun Yat Sen. I shall feature it separately.

About this website

Hello and thanks for reading this page. My name is Timothy and my hobby is in describing places so that I can share the information with the general public. My website has become the go to site for a lot of people including students, teachers, journalists, etc. whenever they seek information on places, particularly those in Malaysia and Singapore. I have been doing this since 5 January 2003, for over twenty years already. You can read about me at Discover Timothy. By now I have compiled information on thousands of places, mostly in Peninsular Malaysia and Singapore, and I continue to add more almost every day. My goal is to describe every street in every town in Malaysia and Singapore.
