Unveiling April Discovery Subscription: My Liberica Honey & My Liberica Anaerobic N20

Within the breath of these lowlands, a new definition of excellence is written by the LOWLAND PARADOX. Instead of reaching upward for the thin air of frosty heights, a certain species of coffee chooses to silently drive its taproots deep into the Mother Earth, distilling the most precious minerals.

By embracing this month’s gift, you become the one to handwrite the next astonishing chapter of a heritage once thought dormant. Along with the echoes from the lands of Johor and the breath of modern innovative thinking, it is you who are engaging in a dialogue with a new ideology in the world of Specialty coffee.

LOWLAND PARADOX – A Proud Paradox of the Lowlands

Straying from the misty peaks that have become the archetype of the Specialty coffee world, My Liberica chooses to anchor its soul in Kulai, Johor – a land sitting a mere 40 – 60 meters above sea level. In this strip of land, the Jason Liew family has authored a proud chapter for the Malaysian coffee industry through pure faith in the Liberica species. Rather than compromising with the well-trodden paths of commercial production, they persistently blazed a distinct trail: creating the world’s first closed Seed-to-Cup model dedicated to reviving a coffee species once forgotten by the harsh currents of time.

Inheriting a foundation of sustainable agronomy and the devotion of true artisans, two creations – My Liberica Honey and My Liberica Anaerobic N20 were born as sweet responses to that perseverance. If My Liberica Honey feels like a warm embrace, soothing the palate with richness and peaceful sweetness, then My Liberica Anaerobic N20 is an enthusiastic invitation, leading us into a space of intellectual innovation.

Despite their opposing personalities, these two flavor nuances walk side-by-side to paint a panoramic picture of the Lowland Paradox. They represent a vibrant spectrum of life, where resilient biological identity intersects with the precision of human hands. Through this, the lowland paradox proves a gentle truth: the true quality of coffee does not always lie in the measurement of altitude, but rather in the depth of the roots firmly planted in the earth and the profound weight of the artisans’ vision.

My Liberica Honey – A Gentle Caress from the Forests of Johor

My Liberica Honey chooses the lowland forests of Kulai, Johor, below 20 meters in altitude, to begin its growth journey. The Liberica here does not reach for the heights to seek prominence. Instead, it chooses introspection, driving its resilient taproots deep into mineral-rich clay to extract the most primal essences. This is where all preconceptions about altitude are blurred, making way for a proud “paradox”: when the stillness of the lowlands crystallizes into intense and profound layers of flavor.

To honor the identity of this species, the Honey process was chosen as a gentle intersection between nature and the grower’s hand. The sweet mucilage enveloping the beans is kept intact, allowing the sun and wind of Johor to slowly dry it, weaving a silken ribbon of soft, full-bodied flavor. Each cup is a warm caress for the senses, featuring the deep sweetness of Honey blended with the richness of a freshly baked Brownie. Yet, the touchpoint that makes the connoisseur pause is the unique Umami – a signature mark of lowland Liberica, carrying the breath of the earth and the fulfillment of time.

My Liberica Honey carries within it a philosophy of patience and steadfastness. It stands as a testament that true value does not necessarily reside in the radiant clouds, but is hidden in the very depths that life can reach. Enjoying this lot, you are listening to the story of a miraculous heritage rebirth, where original identity is nurtured by innovative thinking and the devoted hearts of the Jason Liew family.

My Liberica Anaerobic N20 – An Enthusiastic Invitation to the World of Liberation

Continuing the story of resilient seeds in the lowlands, My Liberica Anaerobic N20 opens an enchanting chapter where technology and nature find a common voice in the quiet lands of Kulai, Johor. At an altitude near sea level, cradled by the warm and humid tropical climate, the Liberica species chooses this place to write a different journey. Instead of performing under the bright sun, the coffee beans undergo a deliberate “seclusion” for 20 days of anaerobic fermentation (Anaerobic Natural – 20 Days Fermentation). This period is like a deep sleep, allowing flavor cells to silently transform, distilling the essence of the clay soil only to emerge with a powerful and novel persona.

Upon reaching the senses, the cup immediately leads you into a tropical garden with scents of sweet Banana, mingled with the nostalgia of Sarsi and the boldness of Cocoa. While hot, each sip is like a warm Brownie, melting into the aroma of ripe Jackfruit. As the temperature drops, the flavor transformation becomes magical: from the sweetness of Milk Chocolate and ripe Cherry when warm, to the elegance and sharpness of Black Cherry and Dark Chocolate as it cools. The structure of the cup is incredibly thick and smooth, akin to a creamy Banana Milkshake, leaving an endless finish with that signature Sarsi imprint – a lingering farewell rarely found in any other coffee lot.

More than just the result of modern processing techniques, My Liberica Anaerobic N20 carries the meaning of liberation and innovative vision. It is proof that when humans deeply understand the identity of a species, we can awaken the greatest potential that has always been hidden within the stillness of the lowlands.

Message of April Discovery Subscription – Sometimes beauty only shines when we are brave enough to look inward

April knocks on the door with golden rays of sunlight pouring over the forests of Kulai, where Liberica is silently writing a proud “paradox” in the lowlands of Johor. In the gentle transition of heaven and earth, this month’s Discovery Subscription sends a contemplative monologue about the value of depth and introspection.

In a world obsessed with seeking radiant peaks and flashy external standards, the story of My Liberica appears as a quiet rest stop, reminding us that true stature does not need the clouds to define it, but is nurtured by the bravery of roots reaching deep into the earth.

This month’s journey leads us through two opposing yet perfectly harmonious nuances in the panoramic map of Malaysian coffee heritage. If My Liberica Honey is an appreciation of primal values, then My Liberica Anaerobic N20 is the desire to break boundaries, proving that by understanding the ultimate identity of a species, we can awaken the greatest potential hidden in the silence of the lowlands.

Just as the once-forgotten coffee beans have resiliently distilled their essence for a brilliant revival, each of us possesses a unique “heritage” lying deep within our hearts. Only when we are brave enough to shed the external noise and reflect upon the deepest silences can we find the pure light of identity and the great strength that stems from authenticity.

Closing the trip to the sun-and-wind-swept lowlands, the Discovery journey still holds unnamed paths and distant origins waiting for their day of revelation…

Together with XLIII Coffee, hold onto this sweet aftertaste and patiently await the promising surprises in the coming month, where new stories and novel gustatory experiences continue to be written exclusively for souls that crave discovery!
