My wife's family has its root in Malaysia, Pulau Penang, and for years her mother has been sending us a care package of spices and coffee from the Kim Guan Coffee Co. Since 1988 Mr Ong, the owner, has been making this wonderful product at 53 Stewart Lane in Georgetown the traditional way, using rubber wood fueled fire to heat his roasters and hard labour to stir the bean. Well, we found out that Mr Ong closed the Stewart Lane factory late last year. Don't know where they are making it now, but I have my people looking into it.
Here are two videos of Mr Ong making the coffee with his employees.

Cooling and mixing
I vow to find this place again, wherever they are hiding :)
