Welcoming 91,056 Registered Visitors in One Year

Preserving the Founder’s Original Recipe Across Three Generations
Founded in 1966, Kluang TV Coffee continues to operate under the founding family’s third generation, preserving the founder’s original recipe.
Third-generation owner Goh Yong Kian has explained that the recipe was created by his grandfather, Goh Tong Tor, and has remained unchanged since the business began. He also described maintaining his grandfather’s coffee-making techniques and sharing the production process with the public.
This continuity gives the visitor experience a personal dimension, connecting the coffee produced today with the knowledge and practices passed down through the family.
Celebrating 60 Years of Coffee Heritage
