The most expensive coffee of the world
Hello dear friends, I am going to speak to you about the most expensive coffee of the whole world today...
I drink coffee every day. I do not drink a lot, just two cups in the morning and sometimes one around 16h but I can not do without it.
I heard an amazing thing on the radio yesterday. There is a very expensive coffee that is recovered in the dumplings, the kopi luwak. The civet is a nocturnal mammal species that resembles a small wild cat with a pointed snout that lives in Indonesia.
The civet feeds in nature, among other things, coffee cherries but does not digest them, so they emerge intact but slightly modified in the stool of the animal. Kopi luwak producers collect their droppings, collect the coffee cherries, wash them gently and then dry them.
Coffee cherries are fleshy fruits, red or purple, produced by the coffee tree. Their core consists of 2 coffee beans each.
Once recovered, washed and dried, the coffee beans transformed by the digestion of the animal are roasted.
Roasting is the process of baking the coffee beans to bring out their aromas.
Unfortunately, it has more and more demands and therefore some unscrupulous breeders exploit without hindrance these poor animals who are no longer fed only coffee beans and who succumb to poisoning because of their unbalanced diet.
Kopi luwak is traded on the market for several hundred dollars a kilogram.
It is then sold in delis or is served in luxury cafes where it can cost up to $ 100 a cup in London!
The particular aroma of this coffee is due to the fermentation process that the grain undergoes in contact with the stomach acids in the digestive tract of the animal. Indeed, at the time of the passage of grains in the digestive system of the civet, enzymes cause a chemical reaction that gives a unique and intense taste to coffee.
Some rogue producers mix civet beans with regular coffee and the kopi luwak stamp.
This mixture does not of course give the same taste as the real coffee made from cakes.
I do not think I ever have the opportunity and pleasure to taste this famous coffee because it is still very expensive and with the price of a single cup you can already buy a lot of things more necessary but who knows a day if I have the opportunity at least I will know exactly what I am eating and where it comes from.
And you, have you ever tasted kopi luwak?
Thought the most expensive coffee was at Starbucks!!.....Joking! This coffee looks exquisite, might have to give it a try!

It is extremely cheap! $ 100 is a small amount. Fortunately I do not drink coffee. But joking, it's very expensive
yes ! of course
I've never heard of it, so it was interesting to read something new about my favorite drink. I also love coffee, and I can not without it) thank you from the same as you coffeeman)
I would never, ever drink kopi luwak because that would contribute to the insane industry behind it: many of the cats are kept in battery cages that are of course way too small for them. The diet is unbalanced. The mortality rate is high. Some of the species that are captured from the wild for production purposes are already close to extinction. So I think I'll give that a pass.
Thank you for saying it...
Thank you for sharing.
I tasted it in Bali.
It´s tasteful and of course interesting how they produce this coffee.
The only thing that i did not like - they put the animals in a cage. This a the negative side.
thanks for this useful information ,i also love the coffee and live without it
I heard once about it and dont like the idea of using animals for getting better coffee!
I never could have thought about a coffe coming from this animal. Amazing! But if that it's so expensive it's because it's delicious. So why not taste it, at least one time.

I saw this several years ago. Seems ridiculous, if you ask me, but some people will buy it just to show how much money they have...I guess. That's for your post.
I tried this coffee, and I am not impressed...
Better not to think of all procedure while drinking 😝
Great article. I heard about this coffee before. I don't know, I probably would try it but don't tell me where it came from. LOL! I will stick with my Folgers French silk. :)

Wow - the idea of tasting the best coffee in the world is normally something I would really want to do. I love my coffee. But this. I don't know. I just don't think I could do it.
one of the best coffee brewed by them. Naturally blended coffee indeed.
nice post for awareness!
I love coffees but this one is expensive. Yes, I'll try it soon.
Wow, I wonder who was the first daring person to attempt making civet poop into coffee lol.
En la película "Antes de Partir" con la actuación de Jack Nicholson y Morgan Freeman, Jack siempre pide un cafe Kopi Luwak, al enterarse Morgan Freeman se muere de risa, antes de morir le confiesa que toma "mierda de gato".
Al ver la película, la cual recomiendo ampliamente, me dedique a investigar sobre este café que, según mis cálculos, en pesos mexicanos costaría alrededor de 5,000.00 el kilo, no la verdad no lo he probado, pero quizas algun dia pueda adquirirlo y entonces lo probare.
Excelente post, felicidades y adelante
The very interesting post
