Kopi Luwak is a traditional specialty in some Indonesian islands, such as Java, Sumatra, Bali and Sulawesi. [1]

Indonesian civets like to choose the most ripe, sweet, juicy coffee fruits in coffee trees as food.

After this digestion process, coffee beans have changed, the flavor is unique, the taste is particularly mellow.

According to the study, the digestive system of the Indonesian civet [2] destroys the protein in the coffee beans, thus reducing the bitterness of the coffee and increasing the round taste. [3]

Mountainous islands are very suitable for its growth, and wild coffee can often be found all over the woods. this provides convenience for the producer of Kopi Luwak, the civet.
