So, should it be worth exchanging two pieces of Grandpa Mao for a cup of cat poop juice?

Kopi Luwak originated in Indonesia. In the early 18th century, the Dutch established coffee plantations in the Indonesian colonies of Sumatra and Java, and banned locals from picking and eating their own coffee fruits. Indonesian locals inadvertently found that civets love to eat these coffee fruits and will drain the beans intact when they poop.

The civet will only choose the most ripe and sweetest coffee beans, which in itself is a kind of natural screening. secondly, locals find that these beans are fermented by the cat's stomach to produce coffee that tastes better than ordinary ones.

Wild civets produce very rare coffee beans, and more Kopi Luwak can only be obtained by farmed.

They are on the verge of collapse, biting each other's companions, biting each other's legs and pulling blood." and die one after another. "

In short, instead of being deceived by these commercial marketing methods, have you ever seen coffee made in such a cruel and dirty way? Why don't you buy a cup of coffee that really pays attention to quality ~
