The Story of Jason Liew and My Liberica
In the quiet town of Simpang Renggam, Johor, Jason Liew grew up on a farm where his father cultivated coffee as a practical solution to stop fruit thieves. Despite initial disinterest in coffee, Jason’s agronomy studies in Taiwan ignited a passion for it. Returning to Malaysia, he transformed his family’s Liberica coffee farm into a specialty coffee producer. Despite challenges and scepticism, Jason’s dedication led to international recognition, with My Liberica placing third in the 2021 World Barista Championship. Today, Jason dreams of making Liberica a globally celebrated coffee variety, supported by his family’s unwavering faith and hard work.
