While searching the many resources of the internet today on coffee, I found a very interesting coffee...blend we'll call it. The coffee is made with animals' stomachs and is called Luwak Coffee. The process as how they get their coffee is simple.
Coffee beans are harvested and fed to animals that live in the Sumatran forest. After the animals have done their business, workers walk around the forest and collect the remains to be brewed into "fresh" made coffee. The actual coffee is owned by the company AnimalCoffee, which is based in Indonesia. The coffee apparently is very popular and is considered to actually be Gourmet Coffee. The beans come from various places around Indonesia but they can offer both Arabica and Robusta type coffees. The company is so far only online based but does have offices in Indonesia as well and is run by someone with the name Troy Davis but they have been in operation for 13 years as of yet. Currently he lives in Australia but his company is starting to pick up steam and the word is spreading.
Big orders are being placed for these coffees so perhaps there really is something to it. If you would like to try some of it, you can always request a sample. If you are into animal stomach type foods don't forget there is also Haggis and I'm sure lots of other types of companies that sell animal organ related foods as well. But then again, some just don't have the stomach for it.
