Kopi Luwak fermentation environment, the flavor becomes unique, especially thick and mellow. The coffee beans fermented by civets' intestines and stomach are very thick and mellow, so they collect civets' feces, sift out the coffee beans and brew them to drink. Due to the scarcity of production and the unique fermentation process, the flavor is very different from that of ordinary coffee.

Eva, the owner of Special Cafe, is a coffee enthusiast who travels around the world every year in search of rare goods. She told reporters that the "Kopi Luwak" was once a tribute from Indonesia to the Dutch royal family. At that time, the industry regarded the coffee with the name "cat shit" as a joke, and people didn't get interested in the Kopi Luwak until it was specially reported in National Geographic magazine.

The expensive Kopi Luwak is the least produced coffee in the world. A bag of 50 grams of coffee beans is worth 1500 yuan, and only 4 cups of coffee can be made. In other words, the price of a cup is about 400 yuan. The annual global output does not exceed 400 kg. Today, villagers in these areas not only collect wild Rwaka feces, but also begin to raise Rwaka in captivity. Large pots of picked coffee cherries were placed in front of Rwaka, and the hungry Rwaka had no choice but to eat all the coffee cherries. The taste of Rwaka coffee produced in this way is naturally greatly reduced. "scarcity is precious", which has led to the high price of Kopi Luwak, a rare treasure. I'm afraid you'll have to prepare £50 for a cup of coffee, and you may not be able to find it everywhere.

In Indonesian, "Kopi" means coffee, and "Luwak" is the name commonly known by Indonesians as "civet". It is said that the coffee produces no more than 500 pounds a year, and the price per pound ranges from $300 to $800, depending on the year, because there is not a fixed production every year.

In the international market, Luwak coffee has always been a veritable luxury, the most important one

The reason for the Kopi Luwak processing is that it is not people but wild animals that make this coffee. Traditionally, the coffee fruit is washed or sun-treated, removing the skin, pulp and sheep skin, and finally taking out the coffee beans, but Luwak coffee is made by natural fermentation in wild animals. What's more, these wild animals are found only on small islands like Indonesia, and their time and place are mysterious, and their number is decreasing day by day. Although Indonesia has claimed that the number of "civets" has rebounded steadily through protection and artificial feeding, the temptation of human taste buds, which depends on its digestive system, cannot be compared with products of the industrial era.

"civets" are omnivores. They are withdrawn by nature and like to walk at night. They live in tropical rain forests, subtropical evergreen broad-leaved forests, mountain thickets or hills, mountains and grasses below 2000 meters above sea level. Its food includes small beasts, birds, amphibians and reptiles, crustaceans, fruits and seeds of insects and plants. The civet likes to choose the most mature, sweet, juicy coffee fruit in the coffee tree as food, while the coffee fruit passes through its digestive system and is digested only by the pulp on the outside of the fruit. The hard coffee beans are then excreted intact by the civets' digestive system. This is the "natural fermentation method" that was once scoffed by Americans. It is said that when Americans heard about this way of making coffee, it was regarded as a fantasy, and it was not until it was reported by National Geographic that they became interested in it.

The world's most luxurious coffee, the world's most expensive coffee, the world's rarest coffee
