RE: CLOSED - Coffee Conversation - a chance to #WinHive

in Cinnamon Cup Coffee3 years ago (edited)

Greetings dear community friends, it is a pleasure for me to participate in this conversation on such an exciting topic. Firstly, I must tell you that I deeply appreciate the basic information to carry out this writing, since until now I had no knowledge about these types of coffee, especially Kopi Luwak coffee and its unique and exotic process. However, to the surprise of many, I would like to tell you that I personally love to discover new things, try new flavors and learn more about the cultures and processes of civilizations, for this reason, I would not hesitate to try this Indonesian coffee and interview myself. With its people, I am learning its most indigenous processing techniques and the particular characteristics that surely distinguish each of the places in the country where this rare variety is produced. I would even like someone experienced in adulthood to explain to me why they decided to value the leftovers left by this animal.

Surely at this point, you are already thinking that I am missing a screw in my head, but I assure you that it is not like that, rather the opposite I am expeditionary of the world, and I deeply respect the culture and values of people and the characteristics of populations I could give an example of this on a trip I made to the Brazilian jungle where I had the opportunity to try a kind of pudding called ice cream whose main component is animal brains, a similar thing happened to me when I visited China and I tried a lot of really delicious dishes that in the western side of the world we would not even think of trying.

I'm sorry I don't have more knowledge about Indonesia to tell you a little more about its gastronomic riches, but today I wrote to a friend from that country that I met through a social network a while ago to see if she can tell me a little more about this thing. So strange what they do with that coffee and that animal. I hope you liked my point of view, I say goodbye and send you a big hug.

It's nice that you'd be open-minded enough to try that Kopi Luwak coffee😁
Indonesia is a beautiful country, and I'm sure you would find a lot of cultural things about the country interesting. I know that Venezuela has a German population, well, Indonesia is former Dutch so that would be great for you to do some comparison I suppose:)))

Hello friend, what an interesting fact it is good to know about this comparison of Indonesian with the German culture which was totally unknown to me. On the other hand, you can't deny me that it must be quite an adventure to taste that coffee as strange and unpleasant as it may seem at first.

Oh yes, of course I have a pixabay photo with a very nice landscape that for some reason I forgot to upload before posting the comment, but I already edited the publication to place it with its source of origin, thank you very much for reminding me.

They actually started to use coffee from this animal’s leftovers when the Dutch came and they were taking all their good quality coffee for export. They had no other chance to enjoy coffee beans, produced by themselves.

It is surely an interesting experience, but as far as I know, there is nothing that much special and extraordinary about the taste of this coffee. 😉

Interesting, unfortunately colonial times forced the natives to discover new things in order to survive, I understand that the price of this coffee is very high because it is used as a gourmet product, I will have to try it sometime to discover its mysteries, thank you very much for commenting.

I like to try new things from different cultures as well. Some things can a little strange but I'm pretty adventurous so I would give anything a try (...almost anything) at least once.

Hello dear friend, we think exactly the same I have always said that I must try everything that is food in different parts of the world, no matter how strange it may seem if in that culture they eat it their reasons will have and those cultural reasons I also love to discover them because they nourish my knowledge and serve as a basis for my writings of literature. Thank you for reading, and I send you a big hug.
