Monkey Business Coffee - Wild Kopi Luwak Coffee Ground Beans - Ethically Sourced - 250 Grams (8.8oz) (Other Weights & Bean Types Available) - Produce of Indonesia…

I had been wanting to try this variety for a while, so I got myself some whole bean as a birthday gift. Honestly, this was what I always knew good coffee could taste like. All the good aspects of really good beans with zero tannic elements. I brewed some in my drip coffeemaker and in a stainless steel phin. I ground the beans to a medium coarse consistency, and the result was extraordinary. The full flavor of good coffee, and no masking of the flavorful undertones. My palette easily distinguished the advertised chocolate elements, and the coffee foundation was flawless. The price of these beans, when compared with other offerings of this genre was quite reasonable, and I’m at a bit of a loss as to how the expense of the competition could be justified.If your curiosity is getting the best of you, my first experience with this was amazing. If you like good coffee as much as I do, this would be the logical first step into this realm. Money well spent!

Smooth taste, no acidity or bitterness at all. This is the first coffee I can drink by itself (without sweetener or cream). I will buy again.

I’m a coffee lover. I usually do not have my coffee black because it’s too bitter. This one you can brew and drink. Don’t even need to sweeten it because it’s very smooth. It has an undertone of maybe cocoa flavor or something like that. I’m not a black coffee drinker so I still added a bit of cream but I tried it without any first. I can honestly say that I would not spend $400 for a bag because it’s not that extraordinary. My taste buds enjoyed it but did not have an orgasm. I like my coffee like I like my men, strong and robust. This bag yields quite a few cups. Enough to invite some friends over for the taste experience.

Why did you pick this product vs others?:I heard a lot about this coffee and decided to try it. I love the coffee and it’s even better iced.

I've had actual civet coffee direct from Vietnam.. which is absolutely amazing and still to this day the single best shot of espresso I've ever had in my life. If normal good quality espresso is an 8 or 9 on a scale of 1 through 10, the civet shot I had was more like a 20. It was amazing, to say the least.This Monkey business coffee has shades of that civet coffee from what I can see. The roast is medium, which leaves somewhat of a sour extraction when it comes to espresso and my equipment. It is low in acidity, which suggests that some percentage of the beans are in fact civet, but what percentage who knows? I wonder if they are mixing it with normal coffee beans, perhaps...I'll update my review based on further testing and/or dialing in the beans, but so far it seems like it's maybe a blend of civet and non-civet coffee beans. Either that or it's simply under roasted / under developed a bit. I wouldn't say it was standout or anything to write home about just yet.Not sure I would order it again, but it's definitely decent coffee when compared to most coffee beans out there; it's fairly well balanced and low in acidity. I'd say it's about on a par with Lavazza organic medium-dark roasted beans, although a touch sour for my taste and its cost.

Coffee tadte very pure and rich. The aroma is enticing. A little bit expensive for the quantity.

Shared this coffee with many of my coworkers and all agreed that it was delicious. I can’t stand black coffee and I drink this black every time, it’s that good. No bitterness.

This stuff is nasty! Im glad it’s gone and would not recommend. It is so bitter I was forced to use a creamer and even that didn’t help much. You get what you pay for. If you really want to try the real deal, dish out the cash and buy Volcanica.
