The Origin of Kopi Luwak

Kopi Luwak, also known as civet coffee, is the most expensive coffee in the world. How did Kopi Luwak come from? In Indonesia, there is an animal called the civet, which likes to eat fat and pulpy coffee fruit, but it is difficult to digest after eating, and the coffee beans are pulled out by the original grains.

Local farmers carefully collect civets' poop, and then go through many processes, such as selection, drying, deodorization, processing and baking, to produce Kopi Luwak. Because of the scarcity, the price is quite high, and a 4-ounce Kopi Luwak can sell for $168 (about 1034 yuan).

In order to get the precious coffee beans, local farmers in Indonesia will catch the civets in cages and feed them themselves. There are also some coffee merchants who simply contract an island to raise civets and let them eat and pull themselves, without forcing them to eat and poop, so the coffee beans they end up with are more valuable.

Does Kopi Luwak taste good?

Indonesian coffee has the taste of earth and traditional Chinese medicine, and its consistency is also very high. But Kopi Luwak tastes more earthy and has a consistency similar to that of syrup. It has a special fragrance, and after drinking it, there will be a touch of mint coolness in the mouth, which is not found in ordinary coffee. After drinking, take a deep breath or contain a mouthful of cold water, just like eating a peppermint, there is a cool feeling from mouth to throat.

Kopi Luwak will emit a flavor similar to honey and chocolate after brewing. It also has a sweet and silky taste without adding sugar and cream. It is not bitter, sour or astringent, and does not scrape your stomach after entering the throat. Even if the coffee is cold, it still tastes sweet.

The aroma of Kopi Luwak is easier to lose than ordinary coffee. In order to maintain the flavor, coffee beans should be packaged independently and then injected with nitrogen to prevent the oxidation of coffee beans. The production process is complicated and rigorous. If you want to enjoy the true taste of Kopi Luwak, do not add sugar or milk to your coffee. It is recommended to use an air stopper (Siphon siphon), add 160g 180ml (ml) of pure water, pour 17g (grams) of coffee powder with about 2 flat spoons, and gently press down the raised coffee powder with flat bamboo slices after the water boils up. Remember! Do not stir, otherwise the coffee will become bitter, sour and astringent.

The water temperature is 96 ℃, the water pressure is 9-10atm, boil for about 1 minute 45 seconds ~ 2 minutes, quickly remove the fire source and wipe the glass bottle with a cold wet cloth to make it cool rapidly, the brewed coffee will quickly fall and show a large number of golden fine foam, so that the ultimate flavor can be achieved. In the general way of brewing, some people say that civet coffee can be brewed for 2 or 3 times, but the above brewing method is regarded as the essence after boiling for a long time, so rebrewing is not recommended.
