ich selbst kämpfe seit langem mit mir, ob ich mich überwinden kann, einen Kopi Luwak auf Grund seiner Vorgeschichte zu probieren. Jetzt weiß ich, dass ich die große Geschmacksexplosion nicht unbedingt verpasse, wenn ich reinen Gewissens vorerst darauf verzichte.
Danke für den Bericht.

Sehr lesenswerter Artikel über den berühmten Katzenkaffee. Ein sehr hochwertiger Kaffee, der hier …

I think it´s great that you made the effort to translate my blog post into your language and as it seems you got the content quite well!

All in all the Kupi Luwak has just been one of the five coffees we tasted that day and I must admit that I tried this special coffee 1 1/2 years before starting to write this blog.
Unfortunately, the only description to that particular coffee stated that it was a “Indonesia Java Kupi-Luwak”. Therefore I can´t say whether I tried arabica or robusta beans. However, it should be the case that robusta beans are more intense than arabica but generally arabica beans tend to be more complex than robusta.

Clearly, in order to get a more profound understanding of its taste I´ll definately have to try it more often. Yet unfortunately there are lot of fake Kupi-Luwak coffees around so one has to pay attention to the different suppliers.

Hopefully I will see you commenting more often in my blog despite the effort involved

Kind regards,
Arne

I tried best to understand this post [Google translate is my friend] and I hope this comment is welcome and finds you in good health.

I have tried Philippine Civet coffee from the mountains which the civet (Schleich Cat) excrete after eating the cherries of Robusta coffee.

The natives pick these up, dry it, grind it by hand and boil before serving: very traditional. They do not use a press at all, so all sediments are also in the cup.

You are correct in saying that it is medium and simply not quite intense, although I suspect, from my end, that it is because of the cherries. I haven’t tried Philippine civet coffee out of Arabica, however, therefore I cannot compare much.

You are also correct that because, in your case, you tasted something that was imported all the way from asia, that the storage may have affected the taste (stored a bit too long, perhaps?). The one I tasted — almost 3 consecutive morning servings — was more or less fresh and not more than weeks old after grinding.

Can you say what cherries the Kopi Luwak you tried were from?

Danke schön!

Als ich Vegetarier war hätte ich ihn auch getrunken

Danke für deinen Kommentar,

Was Vegetarier angeht glaube Ich schon dass Sie Kopi Luwak trinken dürfen. Obwohle Er von einem Tier gefressen wird ist es noch immer ein 100% pflanzliches Produkt.
