About Mr. Brown Coffee

Mr. Brown Coffee is King Car's canned and bottled coffee brand, launched in Taiwan in 1982, where the company says it captured more than 60 per cent market share on launch and remains the country's leading bottled coffee today. The range has since grown well beyond ready-to-drink cans and bottles into drip coffee filters, whole coffee beans, instant coffee mixes and capsule coffee systems, with recent additions including cold brew and protein-enriched lattes developed with world champion baristas. King Car also operates a chain of Mr. Brown branded coffee shops in Taiwan built around the brand.
