this is green (unroasted) wild kopi luwak from northern sumatra, indonesia, sourced by sea island coffee. kopi luwak is produced from coffee cherries that have passed through the digestive tract of asian palm civets, which selectively eat ripe fruit, before the beans are recovered, cleaned, and processed. sea island uses a washed process here, which strips away fruit residue and tends to produce cleaner, more defined cup character than wet-hulled sumatran coffees. because this coffee arrives green, you will need to roast it yourself before brewing, giving you full control over the roast level and therefore the final flavour profile.
common questions
What does GREEN Wild Kopi Luwak, Northern Sumatra - Indonesia taste like?
no specific tasting notes have been provided for this coffee, so it is not possible to describe the cup profile with certainty. as a washed sumatran kopi luwak, the enzymatic process during digestion and the clean washed preparation typically produce a smoother, lower-acidity cup, but you should roast a small test batch first to assess your own results.
How is GREEN Wild Kopi Luwak, Northern Sumatra - Indonesia grown and processed?
the coffee is wild kopi luwak from northern sumatra, meaning civets forage freely and selectively consume ripe coffee cherries. after the beans are collected, they are processed using a washed method, which involves removing all fruit pulp and fermenting the beans before drying, producing a cleaner result than traditional wet-hulled sumatran processing.
How should I brew GREEN Wild Kopi Luwak, Northern Sumatra - Indonesia?
this coffee is sold green and unroasted, so you must roast it at home before brewing. no specific brew method or roast level is listed, so start with a medium roast to preserve clarity from the washed process, then experiment with a method that suits your preference once you have assessed the flavour after roasting.
