A civet eats the berries for their fleshy pulp. In its stomach, proteolytic enzymes seep into the beans, making shorter peptides and more free amino acids. Passing through a civet’s intestines the beans are then defecated, keeping their shape. After gathering, thorough washing, sun drying, light roasting and brewing, these beans yield an aromatic coffee with much less bitterness, widely noted as the most expensive coffee in the world. Would you drink coffee made from poop? Yes, I said it ladies, poop. The world’s most expensive and exclusive coffee in the world is made from just that, poop. On my trip to Bali, Indonesia, I ventured to the legendary Luwak Coffee Plantation. Here I participated in a step-by-step tour of how this specialty coffee is produced and then enjoyed a coffee tasting overlooking lush jungle terrain. A bit skeptical at first, I was blown away by learning about the intense craft and precise art of poop that is required in the curation of the world’s must delicious coffee.
Kopi luwak is the world’s most expensive coffee. The main factor of it’s high price is the uncommon method of producing such a coffee. This coffee is produced from the coffee beans which have been digested by a certain Indonesian cat-like animal called then palm civet or also civet cat. This is the reason kopi luwak is often called “cat poop” coffee.
BALI ANIMAL COFFEE
Coffee beans are actually seeds found in the pit of cherry-sized fruits on the coffee plant. Removing these seeds in the preparation of coffee can be done through fermentation. Over the years humans have devised several ways to synthesize that process of fermentation. But fermentation also happens naturally in the wild through an animal’s digestive tract. Here at the Coffee Plantation, the civet cat eats the ripest berries of a coffee plant and through the process of digestion, the seed is separated from the fruit and is fermented. After about 24 hours, the cat will poop the seeds out naturally and voila… the magic in the coffee making process begins.
Following the collection of the cat’s waste, the beans are carefully washed, dried, pounded and finally, roasted over an open-fire. Some coffee connoisseurs say that the natural process of fermentation leaves the final cup of coffee tasting much smoother and less acidic than any other coffee.

Santi Agrotourism Kintamani
We stopped here as part of a tour of Ubud. The scenery is incredible, feels like you are in the middle of the jungle. The guide explains the process of collecting the droppings and turning it to coffee… then you head in and sit in the beautiful restaurant and have a taster of each of the coffees/tees on offer. After you head to the shop on your way out- we were not hassled or presumed to buy anything in the shop at all and the lady who brought us the tea/coffee was informative and funny! Would 100% recommend.
