Imagine consuming a coffee bean costing above INR 50,000 per kg. No, we ain’t kidding. Kopi Luwak, the world’s most expensive coffee bean, is priced exceptionally high. But what makes this coffee so expensive? It’s just made out of some Asian Palm Civet’s dung!! Haha, sounds fishy? Checkout the entire article!

History of Kopi Luwak 

In the 18th Century, Dutch farmers witnessed some Civet’s consuming coffee fruits. These civets used to leave behind the undigested coffee seeds in their droppings. Some of the farmers started collecting these dumps. Their sole objective was to extract a unique coffee flavor without informing the consumers about the process involved. The Dutch people started loving this amazing blend of coffee beans and developed a taste for it. 

Kopi Luwak’s Coffee Processing

Even today, Indonesian farmers scout for the Asian Civet cat. They are eager to collect the defecated substances extracted from the animal for further cleaning and processing. The entire process adds to the overall pricing as it involves different stages of gruel processing, labor-intensive tasks, and overall time consumption. 

No matter how unhygienic it might sound, the Kopi Luwak beans are 100% hygienic (with thorough cleaning and roasting). Look out for authentic and genuine Koip Luwak beans to cherish the best aromatic coffee in the world.
