What is the name of the Indonesian coffee that is 'processed' by a civet cat?

Show answer

Kopi Luwak

Kopi Luwak is produced from coffee beans that have been eaten and then excreted by the Asian palm civet, a small mammal found in Southeast Asia. This unique fermentation process in the animal's digestive tract is said to reduce the coffee's acidity and create a smoother flavor profile. It remains one of the most expensive and rare coffee varieties in the world due to its labor-intensive and unusual collection method.
