Originally, Kopi Luwak had nothing to do with animal exploitation. It was all just a coincidence that some people found Civets dungs in the middle of the jungle in Sumatera, with coffee beans in it and then tried to brew it, and somehow people found out that the taste was very good. Why is it already expensive back then? well can you imagine, finding natural Civets dungs in a vast jungle? no one had the idea of putting Civets in cages at that time. The good taste and the difficulty to find these “naturally” processed beans created such narration which helped boosting the price. But, doesn’t it sound amazing, that nature already provide us with green beans which are ready for roasting? The wild civets do really eat coffee berries by the way. Of course, people then came up with the idea on how to catch up with the high demand and high price. This, unfortunately, created bad practices and thus a bad image for Kopi Luwak, as people started to exploit the Civets. Some people put the Civets in cages and force them to consume coffee berries. I have a friend who comes from Sumatera. He knew a Kopi Luwak “harvester” who still hunts the dungs in the jungle. Of course that takes a lot effort, money and time. But what really sad is that, the high prices that they established long time ago, enjoyed then by people who produce Kopi Luwak by exploiting Civets. This is what happen in some regions, which don’t have the phenomenon, wild Civets eating coffee berries. If only most people care about the history, and how things are developed, Kopi Luwak wouldn’t easily be judged as animal exploitation, which thus affecting those honest and hard working harvesters I mentioned before, as people started campaigning on banning Kopi Luwak. Of course, the bad practices aren’t to be tolerated and I strictly against such exploitation. What should be done is banning only those bad practices, and on the other hand encouraging the nature friendly process as well as increasing the quality of the coffee itself.

back in the day Kopi Luwak are have many issues about environment, animal abuse etc, same as what people most say. In past Kopi Luwak are about history and about Indonesia coffee in era colonialism. Most Indonesia coffee now are good and exotic as same as Kopi Luwak itself, so if you want taste good Indonesia coffee in term Specialty you most buy from local roaster or buy from overseas roaster which have good coffee from good coffee producer.

Are you from Dutch ?

you should compare it apple to apple .... this geisha and luwak must passing on selecteds green bean (it mean zero deffect), have same post-harvest proses (natural, semi wash, wash, etc), roast it with same rosting profile and roast it with same coffee roaster, and brew it with same barista with same method... actually what I have read or heard or watch coffe in this case have point of theirs... like farmer (variety, MDPL, etc) have point (1-100) has 60 point, the coffee Roaster (developing taste) has 30 point, and the last is the Barista has 10 point. So, if you look back carefully roasting profile of kopi luwak more darker than geisha am I right and you try to compare it?? I thing it's not fair (sorry). I,m From Indonesia and I proud of Indonesia Specialty Coffee maybe the most Varition Coffee in the world... Why? Because We are Archipelago Country, and each Island have their own Specialty Coffee because We have 2 Ring of Fire Passing Us and make it so Unik.... I suggest u must try coffe from different Island, if I may recomended you not ussual Indonesian Coffee that world already know like Aceh Gayo or Mandheiling, etc maybe u should try this 8 Big Island in Indonesia . coffee name based where the was Planted (can be village or region) 1.

Probably because of animal cruelty

As you said, coffee is valued not only because of the taste and aroma, which can differ from ppl to ppl, but also because of its stories. Before, Luwak's main story was about some oppressed and exploited ppl from the global south finding way to taste that heavenly cherry their master were drinking: by observing how nature works and bold action. Basically, human ingenuity to gain access in the most dire place. But now, its more about the exploitation of animals. Logically, if the coffee is well sourced (no animal exploitation and traced origin) there shouldn't be any problem on paying a little more for an "okay, good" coffee that actually has an interesting one of kind history.

Panama’s geisha coffee just set a new record in Dubai: Panama’s Ninety Plus coffee company set a new record $10,000 per kilo ($4,535 per pound) in September 2019. Wow!!! I’m not a coffee drinker but as a Panamanian I’m proud for my country. And it didn’t come at the cost of animal abuse. Viva Panamá 🇵🇦.

Sadly, those magical mornings ended abruptly cause she got laid off for being old already. Damn, I really miss the Geisha flavor on my everyday mornings ;/

I thought Geisha coffe is from japan

I visited coffee plantations in Java in the 70's. They would have half a dozen Luwuk in cages. Unprocessed cherries from various crops were stamped on the seeds and then presented to the Luwuk. Those that were chosen by the animals were labeled 'passed by luwuk' and this had nothing to do with the digestion process 'improving' the product. It is sad to see how this industry has developed, and I would encourage all coffee enthusiasts to boycott Kopi Luwuk.

Panama Geisha coffee 👌

Just to add as Indonesian, nowadays too many fake Kopi Luwak, even in Indonesia. The should be coffee not produced in natural order but by feeding the civet in the cage. And like many Indonesian said, the variety also different. Even for us Indonesian, it's pretty hard to distinguish the original one, unless you go to the right place and meet the farmer that collect those *ehem* from the jungle (not from cage). For me it's just so-so ... but yeah, the name and added this and that made it expensive, I wouldn't denied that.

But I had tasted the one that only cost you 25,000 rupiah, not even 1 % of the other price. Difference? I almost puke if I do not have my manner. So good luck...😁

To compare Panama Geisha with . Kopi Luwak is to go from the sublime to the ridiculous To say . Kopi Luwak comparable with other Indonesian coffee is a very low bar, Indonesia infamous for poor quality coffee, but irrelevant when we consider the cruelty inflicted on civet cats. No one should be engaging in this vile trade and anyone who does named and shamed and driven out of businesses. Shy nocturnal forest creatures kept in battery cages and force fed coffee beans. A vile trade in animal cruelty that no one should support. The animals are fed on a restricted diet of poor quality coffee beans, they are diseased and malnourished, their life span short. De-clawed, their feet and face cut and shredded as they try to escape from their wire cages. In the wild they live on a varied diet. Subject to stress by insensitive tourists for that must have selfie of their expensive coffee. One of the beneficial side effects of coronavirus it may have put out of businesses the coffee shops and the farms that supply them when there is no tourist income. Why is European Coffee Trip promoting this vile trade in animal cruelty? No reputable coffee roastery would be trading in Kopi Luwak. Drift no 9 Bali edition has an excellent account of the vile Kopi Luwak trade. keithpp.wordpress.com/2021/01/30/is-really-expensive-coffee-a-ripoff/ .

In fact my icon is the actual cup that I drank. Real kopi luwak is definitely worth it. The only thing I worry about is where it's sourced. I bought some from the plantation I was at because I could see where it came from. But I worry about buying more from other sources because I don't want to promote caging civets.

I think it says a lot that blind tasting still had the Kopi Luwak being picked over the gesha. I'm by no means a fan of the idea of drinking poop coffee, but the prejudice that the specialty coffee scene has against it tends to be without sufficient context. There are many different factors that can make Kopi Luwak not as good as "legit" specialty coffee, including the fact that the coffee beans themselves were simply not farmed with the same care that specialty coffee tends to get. It's to say that rather than just dismissing the entire idea, it's more intellectually honest to recognize that the concept itself of processing coffee through the digestion of civets can be made both more ethical and more artisanal than the cash grab industry that currently dominates this style of coffee. Only given this can we really make the fair argument whether such a process really produces a "good" tasting cup of coffee. It's like James Hoffman hosting the video by Brazillian farmers growing, processing, and roasting robustas with a specialty mentality. It shows us that perhaps we just haven't seen this process done right, rather than completely dismissing it offhand from current products, when in the first place it was never a fair comparison to expect commodity robustas to stand up to specialty arabicas, when they're just not being compared on equal playing fields. The snobbery agaisnt robusta has been accepted as gospel for years since the third wave, and we're rightly seeing now that maybe there really is room for it in specialty coffee. This is basically to say that maybe we shouldn't throw out the baby with the bathwater when it comes to Kopi Luwak, you know?

Even regular coffee historically involved horrible injustices, but we recognized that it could reformed to be done ethically and fairly rather than choosing to dismiss coffee outright. If digestion by civets doesn't do anything to improve the taste of good specialty-grade coffee, then it should indeed be dismissed. But because several variables have been so uncontrolled and/or unverified in these taste tests, I'm not convinced this is really the case. If it turns out that it does something uniquely desirable to the taste of good coffee, then maybe we should find ways to make it without the animal cruelty, along with improving traceability of the coffee in order to keep quality and price in check.

Here in the Philippines, local civets in mindanao are considered pests by farmers because they kill pet chickens and attack children, because of that they are being hunted in the past to be eradicated and eaten.

They are fed with best crops and there are no reports of animal abuse anymore towards this animal. That's why i dont get it where these "unethical and abusive" connotations towards the coffee. If not because of this industry, Wild Civets ("Alamid" in our language) will be an endagered species right now. I dont believe in your "testing" because i can clearly see the bias in there.
