Indonesia — Bali; Luwak Coffee (more Cat-Pooh-Chino)


Like Semarang, Bali has Cat-Pooh-Chino as well

You may recall that back on 15 April I posted an article on Luwak Coffee (a.k.a., cat-pooh-chino) on our visit to the central portion of the Indonesian island of Java. As a refresher, kopi luwak (also known as civet coffee) is made from partially digested coffee beans fed to the Asian palm civet. Hence the humorous name of Cat-Pooh-Chino. Today’s cuppu comes from Satria Luwak Coffee located about a two-mile/3.2km drive north of Gunung Kawi.

Now, for some strange reason not everyone in our tour group was up for a cup of Joe. Various conventional coffees, teas, and even hot cocoa were available for those less adventurous among us:

Post Brew

As for Ursula and me, we were ready of our cup of Joe. Joe, by the way, was the friendly civet who pooped out our caffeine fix:
