Origin and Plantation
This very special coffee, also called "cat coffee", comes from the Island of Java in Indonesia. It consists of coffee beans, which were eaten and then excreted by a particular species of civets. "Kopi" is the Indonesian name for coffee and "Luwak" is the term for this weasel-like, nocturnal tree dweller, which feeds from the fruit pulp of the coffee cherries. The indigestible coffee beans, on the other hand, are naturally fermented by the enzymes of these animals, creating the popular dark and full flavour. And thus, these thoroughly cleansed and delicately roasted beans enthuse a growing fan base around the world.

Character and Taste
Due to its lower protein content, the Kopi Luwak is significantly less bitter than other coffee varieties. Its spicy, full flavour is syrup-like and offers delicate hints of dark chocolate flavours with some slight wooden notes. Its aftertaste impresses with a light acidity.

PLANTATION INFO
The plantations are situated in the Aceh Province on the island Sumatra. This is where the districts Bener Meriah and Takengon are located where a large mount of Arabica varieties are planted, mainly, though, the Ateng Super variety which is favoured due to its high yield per harvest and its resistance to fungal infestation. The cultivation areas are found at altitudes of 1,500 to 1,600 m above sea level and the maximum production capacity is 150 - 200 kg per month.

PARTICULARITIES
All Arabica coffees in Indonesia are picked by hand, whether they are from small farmers or grown on large plantations. Today, more than 90 % of the coffee is produced on farms with an average area of one hectare. The most unusual method of production in Indonesia is used to create the “Kopi Luwak”. Ripe coffee cherries are
eaten by civets. During the digestion the outer coats of the fruit are removed. The excreted coffee beans are collected, washed and dried.
