Kopi Luwak is expensive coffee because it can be priced at more than IDR 1 million for only 1 kg. This coffee also has its own uniqueness that makes it more popular, namely the production process. Civets eat coffee cherries first. Furthermore, these animals will excrete feces in the form of undigested coffee beans and then take them to be made into coffee. The coffee bean fermentation process carried out by the mongoose actually makes the coffee taste more delicious and soft.
