While travelling in Indonesia I was lucky enough to be able to sample the world's rarest coffee!! Here's my report on it.
Where can you buy or find the world's rarest coffee? Read on and I'll tell you and it's for real - not one of these fake statements that cities like Singapore use to say they have the world's best, the world's biggest etc. This one really is the rarest coffee in the world!!
First things up - it comes from Indonesia. I found it while doing a tour of a coffee plantation in Bali - the coffee plantation is near to lots of rice fields in a hilly area called Munduk. On the coffee tour we came across an odd looking creature called a Luwak Fox. This was housed in a cage and to be honest looked like a scary, bizarre mix between a cat, fox, dog and wolf!! Why am I telling you about a fox? Because this fox requires red coffee beans to survive and it's a rare breed...
Right where do I start? The Luwak Fox eats coffee beans and they then come out of its ass. They use these digested and excreted beans to make the special Luwak Coffee. Really? Yes its the excretion of a Luwak Fox!! I couldn't quite believe it but it had to be tried!!
We tried an alcoholic version of it, as if you're paying a lot for a cup of coffee, you might as well take the bonus of it coming with alcohol.
The cafe we went to is in Munduk and called Kubu Kopi, but there are a lot of cafes around. If you are on a day tour get your driver to take you to a coffee plantation. It would be hard to find by car to be honest but make sure you're in or around Munduk if you want to try it. The coffee is available all over Indonesia and is also exported so being in Bali isn't your only option by the way!
You get a wide range on the menu which includes a photo of the amazing Luwak Fox on it just to convince you to buy and try it. The price was around $8 US Dollars so go for it - as this is the world's rarest coffee! But hold on - what did it taste like?? It was great - I can't easily describe the taste but a totally relaxing and tasty coffee - plus you're in a peaceful environment with a fab view!
OK it's time for me to go and get a normal coffee now! Thanks for reading!
Where can you get the world's rarest coffee? - In Munduk, Bali, INDONESIA (plus its exported)
So what's it called? - Luwak Coffee
Price - Around 8 US Dollars for one cup
What's it made of - to be blunt it's the poo poo from the Luwak Fox (which has eaten red coffee beans!)
Should you try it? Of course!! You only get one chance in life, live it!!
