Due to its shorter roasting time, white coffee has a higher concentration of caffeine. White coffee has a savory and mild taste compared to its regular counterpart. The white coffee beans are harder and different in taste than regular coffee beans. The shorter and lower heat roasting yields lighter-colored coffee beans, called biji kopi putih or white coffee beans. In Indonesia, the term white coffee or kopi putih refers to coffee beans which are roasted less than regular coffee beans. The advisability, however, of consuming instant coffee mixed with non-dairy creamer and sugar daily is slowly coming into question, with some manufacturers now taking the sugar out of the mixture, and marketing the 2-in-1 mixture as sugar-free white coffee. The mixture is preferred by Malaysians at home or in the office as a convenient easy-to-prepare coffee drink. Local coffee manufacturers now mix instant coffee powder with non-dairy creamer or whitener and sugar, and market the 3-in-1 mixture as white coffee as well. The beans used are invariably imported beans roasted to a light color. Overseas visitors finding the margarine-roasted coffee beans unorthodox (due to their slight caramelized flavor) are often misled into believing that there is a type of coffee bean endemic to Malaysia called the "white coffee bean". Ipoh Oldtown White Coffee continues to be popular throughout the country. In Malaysia, the original white coffee started in the Old Town of Ipoh and was a drink made from beans roasted in margarine, ground, brewed and served with sweetened condensed milk.
