Kopi Luwak or Civet Coffee
One of the most expensive and unique coffees in the world. The unique combination of enzymes in the civet's stomach breaks down the proteins that give coffee its bitter taste, leaving a bean with a marked reduction in bitterness along with pleasant spicy tones. 100% Natural Roast.
All About Kopi Luwak
Despite some misunderstandings, Kopi Luwak is not actually a type of coffee but a production method. Therefore, the taste can vary significantly depending on the source of the beans and the roasting process.
What Does Kopi Luwak Taste Like?
It is a smooth and intensely aromatic coffee. It has a complex flavor profile that is smooth, earthy, and spicy.
Where Does Its Name Come From?
Kopi is the Indonesian word for coffee, and Luwak is the Indonesian word for a small ferret-like animal that looks like a cat. In any case, that name is not quite accurate as civets, to be precise, are not actually cats. It is a similar animal native to Southeast Asian countries such as Indonesia, the Philippines, and Vietnam.
Civets play an essential role in the production of Kopi Luwak. To start, they are the guardians of quality because they sort coffee cherries and discard low-quality or damaged fruits. So, Kopi Luwak contains only the highest quality coffee cherries.
In addition to helping select the best cherries, the taste of the coffee is further enhanced by passing through the civet's digestive system. A special enzymatic process occurs in the stomachs of civets where acids interact with the beans. This makes the beans less acidic and smoother.
