What Is Coffee Luwak?

2010-06-18T23:07:00.000-07:00

Luwak coffee / Mongoose coffee comes from the Indonesian island of Sumatra, an area well-known for its excellent coffee. Also native to the area is a small civit-like animal called a Paradoxurus. That's the scientific name, the locals call them luwaks. These little mammals live in the trees and one of their favorite foods is the red, ripe coffee cherry. They eat the cherries, bean and all. While the bean is in the little guy's stomach, it undergoes chemical treatments and fermentations. The bean finishes its journey through the digestive system, and exits. The still-intact beans are collected from the forest floor, and are cleaned, then roasted and ground just like any other coffee.

The resulting coffee is said to be like no other. It has a rich, heavy flavour with hints of caramel or chocolate. Other terms used to describe it are earthy, musty and exotic. The body is almost syrupy and it's very smooth.

One must wonder about the circumstances that brought about the first cup of Kopi Luwak coffee. Who would think to (or even want to) collect and roast beans out of animal feces? Perhaps a native figured it was easier to collect the beans from the ground this way, rather than having to work harder and pick them from the trees? We'll likely never know. But because of the strange method of collecting, there isn't much Kopi Luwak produced in the world. The average total annual production is only around 500 pounds of beans.

Because of the rarity of this coffee, the price is quite outrageous. If you can find a vendor, the current cost for a pound of Kopi Luwak is around $300 or more. Some more adventurous coffee houses are selling it by the cup, but you won't likely find it at your local coffee shop just yet. The coffee isn't so spectacular that it's truly worth that amount of money. You are paying for the experience of enjoying such an unusual and rare delicacy.

Coffee history in Sweden

Coffee, delicious drinks that Got Forbidden

There are interesting stories associated with the history of coffee. It is said that King Gustaff II (1594-1632) from Sweden ever sentenced to two twin brothers. They were found guilty in an alleged crime to them. To determine who is guilty, the king makes the rules unique and unusual.

One of his only allowed to drink coffee during their lives, while another may only have some tea. Now, who first died, he was deemed guilty. Apparently, that was the first tea drinkers died at the age of 83 years, although it was too late, she was designated as the guilty. Since then, Swedes and the countries in the region and Scandinavia have become so fanatical about coffee maniac. Perhaps they believe that by drinking coffee, the age they could be longer.

Myth and History

Acts II and the rule of King Gustaff drinking coffee is just one unique story that highlighted the journey of coffee. In some places and countries there are many legends and stories about coffee, though the stories are jumbled between myth and history. The most famous legend is the story of Kaldi coffee journey and finding "magic red beans."

In one story mentioned, around the 3rd century, there lived a goatherd named Kaldi in Ethiopia. Kaldi known as a good shepherd and very responsible towards animals diurusnya. One day, the goats were not even looking for him to come home and Kaldi. When found, Kaldi saw bizarre behavior exhibited by his goats, jumping effervescent, like being drunk.

Of course Kaldi surprised and find out what was causing the goats "dancing"? Kaldi then attracted by a collection of red-colored seeds are shiny in the bushes and eaten by goats. Curious, Kaldi tried eating the seeds. Miraculously, a few moments later the herd of goats danced merrily, as well as conduct his goats.

We learned that a man walking nearby town of origin. Man named Aucuba it feel drowsy, tired, and hungry. Aucuba happened to watch "crazy act" Kaldi and his goats. I was so hungry, Aucuba even try to eat red beans eaten Kaldi. Before long, her body felt so fresh Aucuba, recovered energy, a sense of mengantuknya lost, and ready to continue his journey.

He also brought some red beans and mix it into the city with other foods. He also uses it as an ingredient of red beans for the beverage mixing the monks to stay awake during prayers. He also spread the seeds of a magical red into the city and other monasteries. Aucuba became a rich man. Meanwhile, the story of Kaldi with his goats there was no sequel.

Role of Arab traders

Apart from various legends, myths, and claims of various parties, historical records of commercial cultivation of coffee was first performed in Arabic in the 15th century. For a long time, commodity trading class is very strictly guarded, the Arab farmers tried in various ways to stop other countries get their precious coffee beans. Over time, coffee beans and pieces of the plant spread to the area of Aden, Egypt, Syria, and Turkey where coffee is known as "arabic wine."

From the Muslim world, coffee spread to Europe, where the drink became popular during the 17th century. The Dutch were the first to import coffee to Europe in large scale and at a time to smuggle the seeds in the year 1690 because plants or raw beans are not allowed outside the Arab region. Then, continue on a coffee plantation in Java by the Dutch.

Coffee also spread quickly to Europe. Although people are familiar with Italian coffee since the 10th century, but the opening of the first coffee shop, Botega Delcafe in Italy, just happened in the year 1645. Coffee shop that later became the center of a meeting of scholars in the country these pizzas. In the City of London, the first coffee house opened in George Yard in Lombat Sreet and in Paris, coffee shop opened in 1671 in the Saint Germain Fair.

In the 18th century, missionaries (messengers), traders and colonists introduced coffee in Central America and South America. Natural environment which naturally proved to be a great place to raise coffee so that coffee can be grown to spread rapidly.

Whereas in America, the national drink coffee made in the United States and became the main menu at breakfast tables. When coffee reached the American colonies of the region, initially not as successful in Europe because it is considered less able to replace the alcohol. However, during the Revolutionary War, the demand for coffee increased high enough, until the dealers have to open a backup supply and raise prices dramatically, in part this is based on the declining supply of tea by the British traders.

Forbidden Drink

Travel coffee became the most popular beverage inhabitants of the earth is not smooth. There were times where the coffee into a product whose presence "forbidden". In the year 1511, because the stimulus effect generated, prohibited its use by priests in the conservative and orthodox religious assemblies in Mecca, Saudi Arabia. However, due to the popularity of this beverage, in the year 1524 the ban was removed on the orders of Sultan Selim I of the Ottoman Turks. In Cairo, Egypt, a similar ban was also passed in 1532, where coffee shops and coffee warehouse is closed.

A century later, precisely in the year 1656, the Ottoman Empire Grand Vizier issued a prohibition to open coffee shops. Not just banned coffee, but punishing those who drink coffee with flogging on the first offense. However, years later, the ban on drinking coffee in the Middle East gradually eroded so that if a husband to forbid his wife to drink coffee, the wife could use this excuse to get a divorce.

In Italy, the priests forbade his followers to drink coffee and said coffee drink that included Muslim sultans to replace the wine. Not just banned, but also punish those who drink coffee. The reason, coffee is a "political commodity" of Muslims in an effort to shift the popularity of wine has long been known and synonymous with the Catholics.

Prohibition also applied in Russia, though more are "discriminatory" and maintain the prestige of aristocracy coffee. Because it is considered prestigious as beverages, King Frederick the Great of Russia in the year 1777 only allows the upper class or aristocratic class just to show kearistokratan coffee.

Sumatra coffee can still be found on the island of Java, though rarely planted as a commercial production. Sumatra coffee beans are slightly larger than coffee beans arabica and robusta coffee.

Natural disaster, World War II and the struggle for independence, all have an important role for coffee in Indonesia. In the early 20th century coffee plantations are under the control of Dutch rule. Infrastructure was developed to facilitate trade coffee. Before World War II in Central Java, there are railway lines used to transport coffee, sugar, pepper, tea and tobacco to Semarang to then be transported by ships.
