The principle of Kopi Luwak is that what the civets like to eat is only the flesh of the coffee. When the coffee fruit passes through the civets' digestive system, only the pulp on the outside of the fruit is digested, and the core coffee beans are discharged intact. The coffee beans fermented in the stomach have a different taste. When the coffee beans are discharged, the formal processing process begins. First of all, you have to wash the coffee beans many times to make sure the coffee beans are completely clean. Then peel off the shell wrapped in the surface of the coffee bean.

According to the workshop owner, the stripping process of Kopi Luwak is usually done manually, on the one hand, because it is easy to damage the coffee beans themselves, and on the other hand, because the machine treatment will destroy the original taste of the coffee beans. ultimately affect the quality and taste of coffee. And the peeled shell can also be used to make pillows. After completing this link, we enter the cleaning link again, and there is a special coffee bean cleaning machine in the store. in general, a batch of coffee beans need to be cleaned for about 2 hours, and then enter the air-drying baking link, and then store. The longer you put it, the darker the color of the coffee beans will be due to oil production, oxidation and other reasons.

Asked if Kopi Luwak was exported to China, Mery told reporters that her products are currently sold in China and are not exported for the time being. However, there are also customers in other countries, including Canada and Japan, who keep in mind after tasting that although she does not provide export services, she can mail products for many coffee lovers. Kopi Luwak's high price is prohibitive. In Indonesia, the price of the coffee is not sighing. In this store, the price of a pack of 100 grams of instant coffee powder is about 175 yuan.

A kilogram of cat poop coffee beans costs as much as $1200 in the US, while a cup of Kopi Luwak in the UK costs about £50.

It is a very interesting fact that civets use their natural sense of smell to help people choose delicious coffee beans in the jungle and become workers voluntarily.
