麝貓咖啡(KOPI LUWAK)
麝貓咖啡(KOPI LUWAK)屬於印尼國寶級咖啡,每杯麝貓咖啡都帶有証書,不愧是全球身價最貴的咖啡。
味道帶酸及朱古力香味的麝貓咖啡,人們又愛稱它為「貓屎咖啡」,因為它是經過麝香貓咀嚼及消化系統發酵而成。咖啡農會將麝貓咖啡曬20日,去除水份,然後經烘焙再磨成粉。印尼人愛加糖加水連同咖啡渣一同飲用。

Kopi Luwak (pronounced [ˈkopi ˈluwak]) or Civet coffee is coffee made from coffee berries which have been eaten by and passed through the digestive tract of the Asian Palm Civet (Paradoxurus hermaphroditus) and other related civet populations. The civets eat the berries, but the beans inside pass through their system undigested. This process takes place on the islands of Sumatra, Java and Sulawesi in the Indonesian Archipelago, in the Philippines (where the product is called Motit Coffee in the Cordillera, or Kape Alamid in Tagalog areas) and in East Timor (locally called kafé-laku). Local lore in Vietnam has given the name "weasel coffee" to civet coffee, in what is considered the closest recognizable translation to English
