CIVET CAT COFFEE (KOPI LUWAK)





If talk about Coffee and Tea in Java would not be complete without mentioning the most expensive coffee in the world. The history of Kopi Luwak (Civet Cat Coffee) when Daendels was appointed Governor General in Netherland East Indies (Indonesia), Coffee cultivation on Java was proving extremely productive. Ironicly all plantation workers  ban to pick coffee for the personal consumption. (no Partner Markout!!!!!)
Plantation workers ("Koelie") find out Civet Cat eat the beans straight from coffee bush and failing to digest them, pass them out in their feces intact. Civet Cat coffee Harvester claim the honour of collecting those beans and roasting  a cup of coffee like no other.
As Javanese, KOPI LUWAK (Civet Cat Coffee) is our heritage and in my personal oppinion Espresso stove top pot is the best equipment to enjoy KOPI LUWAK.. anyhow Dont ask me about the price hahaha.

  1. Wow so amazing pics! Your blog is really nice and full of useful posts. Coffee is a healthy drink. Some evidence also suggests that coffee may help manage asthma and even control attacks when medication if unavailable, stop a headache, boost mood and even help prevent cavities. I just love kopi luwak, the taste of this wonderful coffee is awesome. Love this coffee!
