Historic Profile: Luwak is the Indonesian name for the Civet Cat. Civets spend their nights rampaging through the local coffee plantations. They inspect each berry meticulously and they only choose to eat the berries that are perfectly ripened, with just the right amount of water content and acidity in the parchment.
This ability to differentiate perfect from average is partially the reason Kopi Luwak is so prized above coffee that is handpicked by farm workers. The other reason is the unique processing those berries go through – once the Luwak has ingested the ripe berries, a “100% Natural” process begins.
The intestinal enzymes and juices of the Luwak remove any bitterness from the bean leaving an almost perfectly processed natural coffee bean. Every bean of Kopi Luwak collected on our estate is from wild jungle civet cats.

My daughter bought me 2 taster packs as she knows I’m mad about my coffee. I’ve known about Kopi Luak for a few years now but have always been dissuaded by the price. I’m absolutely hooked now though, its incredibly smooth with no bitter aftertaste. I usually (to my eternal shame) take a sugar in coffee but this is sweet enough. As others have said definate hints of chocolate about this. Bottom line, pricey but what a luxury. Everyone should try some.
Richard Ison –
Very quick delivery and excellent coffee
John Pidgeon –
Really lovely coffee. Best I’ve ever tasted.
Cathy Cameron –
After watching the film The Bucket List with my daughter and wondering if it was only part of the story we decided to investigate Kopi Luac coffee. My daughter bought some for my Christmas and i must say that i thouroughly enjoyed the flavour.
Richard Sear –
Interesting smooth, no obvious cat taste. Not very exciting but something to try.
Andrew Poole –
Great Coffee, brilliant service. No hassle, love it.
Patrick Davison –

Product arrived in good time and packaged well. I haven’t opened it as it’s a gift (hence the anonymous) but smells divine from the outside of the packet!

Excellent tasting rare coffee.

I have purchased this as an Xmas present so I have not used. The parcel was delivered promptly in 4 days and needed to be signed for. It weighed the same as description and smells lovely. As for the taste I’m at a loss as unfortunately it’s not for me. 10/10 for speed of delivery and quality of packing
Jan Pawlowski –
Having had this coffee sometime ago, and telling all my colleagues of the wonderful aroma and flavour, I was delighted when it arrived, and I was able to share my experience from previous encounter with my colleagues. Once again I was astounded by the pure enjoyment this simple coffee brought to myself and colleagues, everyone was very impressed, and importantly we will be ordering more 🙂

When i last bought this coffe as a stocking filler the packaging was really nice.however this time round its arrived in a shabby brown paper bag,very dissapointing and i actually feel embarrassed offering this as a gift.it also cost me five pounds more for the taster this time,i do accept that given as everything has gone up,wish the packaging had stayed the same though.
Angus Matheson –
great service, bought as a gift and reached me within a couple of days, coffee good as well
ian chauhan –
fantastic product, worth every penny.
Robert Moore –
Super fast delivery, neat and secure bag
Wayne Gladding –
The best coffee I’ve ever tasted. Smoother and yet stronger than Jamaican blue mountain and yet very pleasant
Philip Downing –
Great product! Used as a gift so cannot give an honest opinion of the taste, but arrived quickly and was packaged with care.
Erik Kapas –
The coffee is fantastic, the only thing that I can’t afford to drink it often.
Mengdi Yang –
Smooth coffee. Up to the hype!
gavin hall –
Great coffee. Like all great things – not cheap.
Nigel Pilcher –
underwhelming
Justin Marsden –
Fantastic coffee at a fantastic price. If you’ve never tried it then I urge you to do so, you won’t regret it! Excellent service and fast delivery means that I’ll definitely be back for more.
Alastair Platt –
Lovely coffee, suble yet rich in flavour. I had mine delivered ground, which looked like it had been done between two breeze blocks, so you’ll need your own grinder.
John Sandham –
Nice coffee, if I could afford it I would have drunk more!
jackie teague –
Always buy this excellent coffee for my husband as its his favourite. Prompt delivery and no problems at all.
carol Whiteside Law –
Good coffee but not amazing
carole cook –
turned up on time, packageing looked good, brother-in-law was very happy with it
Rebecca Titterington –
I got the coffee as a gift for my boyfriend. He’s talked about it for ages so I thought he’d like it and he did. I haven’t tried it myself yet, he likes it so much he won’t share!!!!
Robert Hutchison –
Amazing, smoothest coffee i’ve ever had!
JEAN KEMPSELL –
prompt delivery- fab product- aim to purchase in the future
ian chauhan –
Lovely coffee, have ordered before,well worth the price.
Duncan Rothery –
This is the first time we have tried this coffee. It certainly has a unique flavour and is excellent. I think as the price suggests, this one is for special occasions, would be nice after a good dinner!!
Erich Kraus –
excellent coffee
ian chauhan –
great taste, great coffee
Vaughan SHERRAH DAVIES –
Prompt good service
mark neville –
nice bean with a nice smooth taste, Its a shame its so expensive.
hazel macdougall –
I bought this coffee out of curiosity having heard about it on a tv programme. I knew it was expensive but it was worth every penny. It has a pleasant strong creamy earthy flavour. We had it at breakfast and it was a great way to start our day. I’d recommend anyone to try it.
Alastair Roberts –
Very interesting coffee. Glad I tried it. Only for special occasions
Nicola Walton –
I bought this coffee as a gift for a friend having recently watched the film ‘The Bucket List’ . According to them the coffee was fabulous. Ordering was easy, prices were very competitive and the delivery was very fast. Wish I’d got to taste the coffee though! Would definitely use this site again.
Russ Jones –
Knowing how much I love my coffee, my son bought me the 50g taster pack for fathers day. Having Googled Kopi Lewak I made myself a cup filled with great anticipation, and I’ve got to say from the first taste to the last drop it is the best coffee I’ve ever tasted. Anyone who is passionate about their coffee should try some.
FEI ZUO –
good
Nick –
In for a penny I thought �45 quid a bag! – worth every penny fantastic stuff – quests loved it even when, after tasting it, I told them what it was. Company service also matches the coffee
Charles Fogg –
Great tasting coffee, nicely rounded and smoth
Mel Bradley –
Beautiful coffee. The aroma was lovely. Will definately buy this again. Excellent service too.
Jon Wilson –
Depth of flavour and slight acidity makes this coffee a perfect macchiato or staight up.
Robert Jewell –
this is the worlds best coffe !
Sandie Ollier –
Very good product, nicely packaged and sent on time and packed perfectly. Thank you will buy again and recommend.
P Davison –
Not really worth the expense, but good fun for a laugh now and again
Philippa Peters –
The perfect gift for people who have have everything. At under �10 for a sample pack it’s a great way to give someone something that is the most expensive in the world without breaking the bank. Great talking point and surprisingly positive feedback from all the people who have tried it so far.
kamara eales –
Had a bit of a hicup with delayed delivery! But once this was sorted the beans arrived swiftly!
Oliver Anderson –
This coffee is very good, but it is not mind blowing. The coffee is certainly much better than average and I really enjoyed it. However, it does not represent value for money. 4 cups for �12.50 is very expensive and whilst the taste was good, I doubt I’ll be buying again. ** No problems with the supplier though. Quick delivery and product as descriebed 🙂 **
Jordan Maguire –
Good
Maria Nawaz –
very good
Erik Filo –
I’m 100% satisfy with yours product and service.Thanks!!!
YE SHI –
amazing speed of delivery. great coffee. loved the service, the careful packing etc. Have been loyal customer of Finest coffee, and will continue to be.
FLORIN BOTOSINEANU –
Strong coffee, taste very nice despite how it’s made Love it
Azlin Bloor –
A fairly good cup of coffee, not very rich or strong with an extremely smooth aftertaste that besides its story, is perhaps the strongest selling point. I would certainly buy it again for the novelty factor to wow guests!
Nigel Carter –
Good service …coffee is very smooth and not as i imagined harsh
Margaret Cairns –
Absolutely fantastic coffee, have told friends & family about it and will certainly be buying more, lots more. Thank you
paul howard –
no hesitation buy this coffee if you are a coffee lover absolutely first class A++++++
BEATA BERZINS –
great rich smooth taste – love it!!
Michael –
One of the best.
Cheryl Jones –
We will be buying more of this amazing coffee.
Richard Byrne –
Strong but exceptionally smooth
George Osborne –
The coffee was amazing and it arrived very fast. I read about the hype and thought I would have to try it myself. I can now finally understand why so many people rave about this. easily the best coffee I’ve had. The only problem I had was that I didn’t get a shipping conformation email, but it did arrive quickly so it wasn’t much of an issue.
tanya rooney –
The most amazing cup of coffee i have ever had!!! would strongly advise any coffee perfectionist to try this!!! AMAZING
Ben Bunting –
Great thanks.
Eddy Graham –
once i found about what this been goes through (no pun intended) i thought i have to try this. It is very nice coffee, quite a nutty taste to it, and very strong and pleasing to the palette, its not something i would regularly buy given the cost, however its great for conversation with other coffee lovers and you can tick it off the list of the most expensive thing ive tried list!
Fraser Malcolm –
Love it
HBc –
Very speedy delivery and product as described
Tracy Savage –
I love Italian blends and really enjoyed this coffee. My boyfriend loves the French blends and was less impressed. I think if you like really strong, bitter coffee or if your palate is diminished (e.g. by smoking/aging) then this is not for you. I loved it!
andrew hyne –
Product arrived swiftly in time for christmas, nice coffee, a bit ‘earthy’ but very pleasant.
John Whyment –
I always wanted to try this coffee. Soi i purchased two X fifty gr packs, one for me and one for my nephew, result were from the mildly fantastic from me to wow I want more from my nephew. Without doubt repeat orders to follow shortly.
