The Malaysian kopi is an acquired taste. The coffee is rather strong in flavour while aromatic. The flavour of the coffee depends on how the coffee beans are treated. For example, some are double roasted and enhanced with extra sugar, salt and margarine, and it can be fast roasting or slow roasting etc.

There are many choices on how you have your coffee, whether it is black, white, without sugar, with sugar or condensed milk etc.
