Green Bean l Luwak Liar l Wild Civet 1kg

Most civet coffee on the market comes from civets kept in cages and fed coffee cherries throughout the day. This is not just a question of animal welfare; it also affects the coffee itself. Captive civets eat whatever is provided, while wild civets select the ripest fruit themselves in the forest. That natural fruit selection is the part of the story most often overlooked when people talk about civet coffee.

This lot is collected from wild civets in Arul Kumer Selatan, Central Aceh, at an altitude of 1,119 meters above sea level, featuring the Ateng Super variety and processed using the Semi-Wash method. During digestion, some of the proteins in the coffee beans are broken down. The most consistently reported effect is reduced bitterness and acidity, rather than an automatic improvement in overall quality.

We describe it as it is. Wild civet coffee is always produced in limited quantities because its collection cannot be mechanized.

For roasters: Treat this as a low-acidity lot. We recommend a medium roast, stopping before second crack.

POTENTIAL NOTES

Chocolate | Raisin | Black Tea

We write potential notes, not tasting notes. This is green coffee, not roasted coffee. What ultimately ends up in the cup depends on your roasting profile. We simply provide a starting point.

EVERY LOT GOES THROUGH QUALITY CONTROL

Origin, grade, processing method, moisture content, density, and defect count. We inspect, store, and record every lot.

Coffee is not magic. Coffee is a process, and processes can be tested.

TRIPLE PICK QUALITY ASSURANCE

Why Is Our Green Bean More Reliably Sorted?

Most marketplace sellers claim Grade 1 quality based on just one round of coarse machine sorting. At Coffest Roastery, we apply three stages of physical purification:

1 // Suton Machine

Filters out foreign objects such as stones, twigs, dust, broken beans, and silverskin that may have passed through from earlier processing stages.

2 // Optical Sorting Machine (SORTEX)

Uses modern optical sensor technology to eject black beans, sour beans, and beans damaged by insect bites.

3 // Hand Sorting (Manual Picking)

Our expert team performs the final manual inspection to remove fungus-damaged beans and ensure that defects are reduced to nearly zero.

The drying process uses indirect sunlight through a greenhouse system to help preserve the coffee’s optimal flavor characteristics.
