Certified as foraged solely from civet cats living in the wild by the Indonesian Government’s Department of Agriculture in Bali.
Foraged from the droppings of wild Kopi Luwak (Civet Cats), the ‘magic’ of Kopi Luwak occurs in two parts: First, the wild Luwak selects the ripest coffee cherries using its acute sense of smell. Then, as it passes through the Luwak, the digestive acids create a molecular change in the coffee bean, leaving it discernibly more brittle once collected and dried, enhancing the bean's natural qualities.
Properly foraged wild Kopi Luwak is only ever available in very small quantities as the process of finding these droppings within large forests is exceptionally time-consuming. The beauty of the coffee is that the civets are extremely selective and will only consume perfectly ripe coffee cherries, while the proteolytic enzymes in the civet cat’s digestive tract effectively remove any bitterness.
