Kopi Luwak (#)
„On these Indonesian islands, there's a small marsupial called the paradoxurus, a tree-dwelling animal that is part of the sibet family. Long regarded by the natives as pests, they climb among the coffee trees eating only the ripest, reddest coffee cherries. Who knows who first thought of it, or how or why, but what these animals eat they must also digest and eventually excrete. Some brazen or desparate -- or simply lazy -- local gathered the beans, which come through the digestion process fairly intact, still wrapped in layers of the cherries' mucilage.“

„ I don't know if they export their "Chon" variety, but it is exquisite! It's sort of a poor man's kopi luwak, since it has gone through the digestive system of a weasel, not a civet.“

„I am new to this forum and I am not sure where can post this question. I've heard about coffee Kopi Luwak and the very strange way it is produced by. I just wonder if it is true or not. Maybe the whole legend is not true and it arised to attract more attention to this coffee and get more money?“

„I put some cheap beans through it (some cheaper Colombian), and indeed, it was working. Doug and I started talking about Kopi Luwak , so I pulled out my remaining stash, grabbed 230 grams of it, and started roasting.“
