The most famous Hawaiian Kona coffee beans are its peaberry bean types. The number of coffee beans is very limited because it comes from genetic errors in coffee beans. In the past, this type of coffee bean was not appreciated because it was considered defective, but now peaberry coffee beans are an option if you want to enjoy the delicious taste of coffee.
3. Indonesian Civet Coffee
Indonesian Civet Coffee is famous for having the best quality beans from natural selection through the intercession of Luwak animals. Civet coffee produced from wild mongoose is the best coffee bean because Luwak only eats the most mature and best coffee beans.
The original Indonesian Civet Coffee which is classified as Gourmet coffee is an Arabica type of Civet coffee that grows in mountainous areas such as in the Gayo Aceh area, Mount Ijen, or in Toraja land. The taste of Luwak coffee varies depending on the region of origin, but all of them must have a thin bitter taste and are more likely to be sweet because of the lower caffeine content in Luwak coffee. It is caused by the fermentation process that occurs in the stomach of the Civet.
