Kopi Luwak lands on Koh Samui

Much had been said already about Kopi Luwak, the world’s most expensive coffee (only 4500kg are produced a year and 100g cost in average US$ 100), but KC Resort and its Med Restaurant, are presenting something new: “Kopi Luwak Cuisine”.

Our Executive Chef Stephane has created a unique menu that features exciting combinations of the best products available, prepared with a good portion of the exclusive coffee.

Expect surprising flavor combinations and new sensations for your taste-buds in these signature dishes that will be presented to a selected handful of people on 11. November 2009. You can find some of the creations as well on our new menu that will be introduced in December as well.

Another highlight is “The most exclusive dessert outside of Bangkok”, which is every dessert lover’s dream, featuring some of the best sweet ingredients you can find in the world, combined with indigenous ingredients of Koh Samui.

Go for the total Kopi Luwak experience and try our signature cocktails and drinks, like the KopiLurious Martini – a succulent Chocolate & Coffee Martini.

Kopi Luak (pronounced [ˈkopi 'luwak]) or Civet coffee is coffee made from coffee berries which have been eaten by and passed through thedigestive tract of the Asian Palm Civet (Paradoxurus hermaphroditus) and other related civets. The civets eat the berries, but the beans inside pass through their system undigested. This process takes place on the islands of Sumatra, Java, Bali and Sulawesi in the Indonesian Archipelago, in thePhilippines (where the product is called Motit Coffee in the Cordillera, or Kape Alamid in Tagalog areas) and in East Timor (locally called kafé-laku). Local lore in Vietnam has given the name "weasel coffee" to civet coffee, in what is considered the closest recognizable translation to English.

This great coffee has finally made its way to the Gulf of Thailand. You may find it at the KC Resort & Over Water Villa on Chaweng Beach road as of 11.11.09.

This coffee also became famous through the recent movie with Jack Nicholson and Morgan Freeman in The Bucket List.
