Luwak Coffee

Luwak Coffee (Also known as Civet Coffee) is the MOST expensive coffee ever. It's gonna cost you up to a lot of dollars per kilogram, interesting to buy it?

That is indeed a very high price for a coffee, but it's worth it (I think) since it is come from the BEST coffee beans. You might think what makes it different than other type of coffee? Well, the one who choose beans for Luwak Coffee is NOT human but animal, it's an asian palm civet. Check Wikipedia if you want to know the detail about that animal.

OK, back to coffee luwak. Coffee beans that chosen by civet are the best one, and she gonna eat it. And then the bean coffee that 'come out' from the civet are beans that used for Coffee Luwak. Well, it is indeed come from civet's poop, but this is what makes it unique.

Since the flavor of coffee owes much to its proteins, there is a hypothesis that this shift in the numbers and kinds of proteins in beans after being swallowed by civets brings forth their unique flavor. The proteins are also involved in non-enzymatic Maillard browning reactions brought about later by roasting. Moreover, while inside a civet the beans begin to germinate by malting which also lowers their bitterness. (got from Wikipedia)
