The village is taking a leaf from Ipoh’s fame with white coffee that has become a tourism attraction.

He said some 4,000 Liberica coffee trees were planted, in the village, in batches between 2015 and 2017.

“Now I will need to come up with another proposal with fresh ideas to be submitted to the Mentri Besar’s office,” he told StarMetro recently. Chen said the current village did not have any coffee trees until 2015 when he conceptualised a plan to plant coffee trees.Chen is eager for the coffee beans from Kopisan to gain better recognition, so that they may give coffee that is consumed in Malaysia a more local flavour.Chen, who buys the fruit from villagers at RM3 per kg, said each tree could yield an estimated 10kg of beans.

Sharifuddin said he liked being surrounded by the village’s coffee trees and it was a bonus to be able to taste the locally-roasted brew.
