The origin of the introduction of Kopi Luwak

The old plantations preserved today are now clustered in eastern Java, including Djampit, Blawan, Pancoer, and Kayumas4 plantations, all near the Ijen volcano on the Ijen plateau, who have grown the same kind of coffee from the 18th century to the present. But Java is no longer that Java, and when it comes to Indonesian coffee, people talk more about Sumatran mantenin coffee, or the more magical coffee Kopi Luwak, the legendary civet coffee. Luwak coffee is known as the most expensive coffee in the world, mainly produced in Indonesia's Sumatra, Java and other islands, but it is so rare that the civets swallow the coffee fruit and unexpectedly eliminate most of the bitterness after a "hundred twists and turns". Leave the more delicious coffee.

At that time, Europeans fought for Indonesian coffee, especially Java coffee, which tasted less bitter. Coffee with low acidity is described as: "good Java coffee has this property, it shows a relatively thick, slightly lighter and less acidic than some other Indonesian coffee." This coffee shows a rustic style and a long aftertaste on the whole, with a slight flicker of vegetation in the aftertaste. Compared with other Indonesian coffees, the finish is not that long, but it often contains a slightly spicy and smoky blend. Java coffee gives people an impression of sweetness as a whole, very soft and rich. " I don't know what Java coffee was like in its heyday, but I was excited when I read it. Indonesia has always been one of the best coffee producers in the world. Java coffee used to be synonymous with top coffee, while Sumatra and Sulawesi are also rich in top coffee. Coffee arrived in Indonesia early and was brought in by the Dutch in the 17th century, when Ceylon, now Sri Lanka, began to grow coffee because of the Dutch. At that time, Arabica coffee was grown in both Indonesia and Sri Lanka.
