About This Coffee

This seasonal Borneo Blend is a 100% Malaysian coffee composed of Catimor beans grown in the highlands of Ranau, Sabah, at an elevation of 1,300 to 1,450 meters. The blend consists of 70% washed and 30% anaerobic natural processed beans, roasted to a medium profile. It offers a balanced flavor profile with notes of dried mango and a smooth cacao nibs finish. When prepared with milk, it develops a mellow, milk tea-like character with subtle floral hints.

Ghostbird Coffee

Ghostbird Coffee was founded by Thomas Ooi in Kuala Lumpur in 2015 with a mission to advance specialty coffee culture in Malaysia. Ooi built the roastery around a Giesen W6A drum roaster, roasting fresh daily and resting all beans for three days before dispatch to ensure peak flavor. The company serves as both a roaster and an educational hub, offering public cuppings and coffee appreciation classes that have earned it a reputation as a school of specialty coffee. Ghostbird is a founding partner of the Good Coffee Festival and has hosted the Malaysia AeroPress Championship since 2023. Single origin offerings and espresso blends are developed with an emphasis on responsible sourcing and transparency.
