The flavor and taste characteristics of high-priced cat shit coffee beans from Indonesia and the origin of the story behind them.

Kopi Luwak, I believe everyone has heard of it! Kopi Luwak produces very little, and goods are scarce, so his price is very high. Do you know where it is of origin? Why is he called Kopi Luwak? With these questions, let's take a look at this Kopi Luwak from Qianjie Coffee.

The origin of kopi luwak is closely related to the history of coffee production in Indonesia. Dutch colonists set up coffee plantations in Indonesia and imported coffee beans from Yemen. In the 19th century, farmers in central Java began to brew and drink coffee from excretory beans collected by plantations. Kopi luwak is one of the most expensive coffee in the world, selling for between $220 and $1100 per kilogram ($100,500 per pound) in 2010. The price paid to Filipino collectors is close to $20 per kilogram. [13] the specialty Vietnamese weasel coffee, made from coffee beans eaten by wild civets, sells for $500 per kilogram. [32] most of the customers are Asian, especially from Japan, China and South Korea. [33] the sources of global annual production vary widely. The price of raising kopi luwak is considered low-end by connoisseurs; in Indonesia's large supermarkets, it costs about $100kg, five times the price of local premium Arabica coffee.
