The world's most expensive coffee, Kopi Luwak is one of those rare and mysterious foods that seems to both intrigue and unsettle people. The infamous part of Kopi Luwak comes from a species of feral cat called the Civet, or Luwak. It's important to remember that coffee "beans" are actually a cherry-like fruit. Civets eat only the ripest fruit of the coffee shrub, but are unable to digest the core, the coffee seed. Unable to digest the beans, the Luwak graciously deposits them on the jungle floor where they are eagerly collected by the locals. The stomach acids and enzymatic action involved in this unique fermentation process produces the beans for the world's rarest coffee beverage.
Touted as the rarest and most expensive coffee on earth, this coffee lives up to its reputation. Rich, strong flavored, and amazingly full-bodied, this is the perfect cup of coffee to savor. It is an exquisite combination of the various features found in other coffees and an excellent combination of chocolate and syrupy taste. The unique fermentation and origin of the beans makes Kopi Luwak Coffee truly exceptional and one-of-a-kind. Because of the rarity of this coffee, the price is quite high. You are paying for the experience of enjoying such an unusual and rare delicacy as well as a spectacular cup of coffee. Each pound of Kopi Luwak coffee comes in a souvenir bag with a certificate of authenticity numbered to match your bag.
