About Kopi Luwak Coffee Beans

The distinguishing characteristics of Luwak coffee are its aroma and flavor. The taste of civet coffee is less bitter than regular coffee, and it’s syrupy, smooth, and rich with chocolate and jungle undertones. The outstanding balance among the body, acidity, and sweetness, renders pleasant flavor and slurp, with no impact on the gastrointestinal disorder.

This is the most expensive coffee as produced by the excretion of wild Luwak in the jungle as naturally they select the best cherry by instinct, the good and unique flavor because of derivative enzymes, fermentation in the intestine of the civet, the scarcity production just in few hundred kg not reaching in tons.

What Is Luwak Coffee?

What is Luwak coffee made of? Luwak coffee is a type of coffee that comes from quality coffee beans that have been eaten and digested by civets.

Thanks to the natural fermentation process in its digestive system, this coffee has a distinctive flavor that people love.

The process begins with the Luwak’s selection of high-quality coffee beans. Once eaten and digested, the coffee beans are excreted along with their feces.

The beans are then collected and carefully cleaned. This leaves a coffee ready to be processed further to the brewing stage.

Where Does Luwak Coffee Come From?

Generally, Luwak coffee is imported from various regions in Indonesia, especially the islands of Sumatra, Aceh, and Bali. These three islands are labelled as high-quality civet coffee-producing areas.

Not surprisingly, in some of these areas, there are indeed many farmers who keep these animals. They ensure that the civet only consumes the best coffee fruits to produce Luwak coffee with the best flavor!

Apart from Indonesia, the Philippines and Vietnam also produce civet coffee. However, they lose out because Indonesia’s climate and soil conditions are ideal for coffee cultivation.

The History of Luwak Coffee

When we talk about its history, Luwak coffee was discovered in the 18th century. During this time, the coffee plant was only introduced as an export commodity for the consumption of the Dutch.

However, the local farmers did not stop there. They experimented until they found that the coffee beans digested by civets remained intact and had a unique flavor when processed.

Once known only in local circles, its reputation began to spread to the international coffee market over time. Civet coffee has symbolized luxury in recent decades because of its high price tag.
