The World’s Most Expensive Coffee
Coffee Alamid comes from wild civet droppings on the varied forest floors of the Philippine mountain ranges. The Paradoxorus philippinensis is a civet belonging to the mongoose family. It is a nocturnal animail which uses its nose to choose the sweetest and ripest coffee cherries and eats them during the coffee months. Forest dwellers climb the mountains and pick up civet droppings before the sun rises.
Coffee Alamid as called in the Philippines is a blend of the finest Arabica, Exelsa and Liberica beans. It has a strong, sweet, dark chocolaty taste which makes it one of the world’s best coffee.
Civet coffee is also called Kopi Luwak in Indonesia.
