Does Kopi Luwak taste good? What does Kopi Luwak taste like?

It is said that experts who have tasted this kind of coffee have gone to two extremes in their comments on its taste. One describes the coffee as "the best in the world". The taste is so unusual that it is difficult to describe in words and words: "with a bit of dirt, slightly choking taste and visceral taste, it won't go away in the mouth for a long time until the last drop." Another evaluation is quite the opposite: "it's hard to swallow, it's a complete gimmick, and it's not worth paying for stinky coffee."

Coffee experts say that most Luwak coffee comes from low-altitude robusta beans, suggesting that civets prefer robusta beans to Arabica beans at higher altitudes. Indonesian coffee itself has the taste of earth and traditional Chinese medicine, and its consistency is among the highest in all continents, but Luwak coffee has a better taste and consistency, especially with a consistency almost close to syrup, and its flavor is very special (if it can be described by fragrance).

The coffee made from the real civet coffee will emit a fragrance like honey and chocolate, and it will have a sweet, smooth and rich taste without adding sugar and cream, while the texture of the original water has been fully covered by the round and rich texture of the coffee, so the tip of the tongue can hardly feel the quality of the water at the beginning of the mouth. Not bitter, not sour, not astringent, but a little more milk flavor, and after entering the throat without scraping the stomach will not cause stomach discomfort. Even if it is cold, the taste is still mellow. After tasting it, the cup still has a sweet smell of milk. It is a coffee with rich texture and depth, and it is absolutely unique. But if you don't like the taste of Indonesian coffee in the first place, then to be sure, you will hate Luwak coffee more; but if, on the contrary, you like the fishy smell of aged Indonesian beans or Indian-style beans, you may fall in love with Luwak coffee with similar flavor.

Once at a tasting, many celebrities savoured every fragrance of Luwak coffee without being told the truth, and tried to describe their sensory reactions with gorgeous words. However, when people know the origin of this drink, they feel stomach discomfort at the same time. Civet Coffee salespeople suggest that if you want to use this coffee to entertain a guest, either never tell him the truth, or tell him the origin of the coffee in advance and let him decide whether to drink it or not, lest he overreact.
