Kopi Luwak

Kopi luwak may sound gross, but it’s a unique coffee with an interesting origin story. It all starts with civet cats in Indonesia. These cat-like creatures eat only the ripest, tastiest coffee cherries. As the cherries pass through their digestive system, enzymes interact with the beans, transforming their flavour.

The civets then discard the beans in their droppings, which farmers collect, clean and roast into a one-of-a-kind brew called the kopi luwak. While wild civets once chose the cherries themselves on coffee plantations, today’s kopi luwak may come from civets that are fed a special diet on farms.

Turkish Coffee That Predicts Futures

In Turkey, there’s a cool tradition of telling the future from coffee grounds. After you finish a cup of Turkish coffee, which is made by boiling super-finely ground coffee beans, there are these awesome shapes left at the bottom of the cup after drinking the coffee.
