Kopi Luwak is one of the World's most expensive and rare coffee varieties. The beans are specifically selected for their ripeness and quality by the civet, a small jungle marsupial that feeds off the fruit of the coffee cherry. They are then gathered by humans from the jungle floors of Indonesia, thoroughly cleaned, and sun-dried. A precise roasting by San Diego's Ryan Bros. coffee leads to an extremely aromatic and exceptionally smooth final product that complements this imperial stout amazingly well. Good to the last dropping!

Bottle shared at the 2025 Pre-Christmas/NY Zaandam Borrel. Poured a slightly murky dark brown colour with a round frothy tan head. The aroma is roasty, light coffee. The flavour is moderate sweet and liquorice bitter, with a smooth, rich, earthy, herbal, light coffee, warm boozy, liquorice bitter palate.

Der malzige Antrunk wirkt trocken blechern, etwas holzig, mild alkoholisch. Etwas brotig, vergleichsweise langweilig. 11/12/11/11//11
