That's why I focused on the Mandheling cultivation areas south of Aceh, around Lake Toba. The varieties cultivated in this area include the indigenous Linton, as well as LIN.S, Bourbon, Kartika, S795, and others.

First, I visited Kopi Luwak dealers and negotiated for filming, but I was repeatedly turned down. Of course, they would. Kopi Luwak is like a treasure to them; they couldn't easily tell people where it was.

Then, after exploring the jungle, we succeeded in collecting Kopi Luwak! I was deeply moved by its rarity and developed a desire to \"spread the word about the legendary Kopi Luwak to the world.\" The Kopi Luwak I sought was \"wild and natural,\" known as \"wild luwak.\" This implies that the opposite, \"non-wild,\" exists. Some people keep luwaks in cages and feed them coffee cherries. This makes it efficient and easy to collect \"Kopi Luwak.\" You don't have to scramble through the jungle like in this video. However, I insisted on wild luwak. Aside from the quality issue, I cannot condone keeping them in cages.

Although our Kopi Luwak is exclusively wild, they slandered us, saying, \"Don't cage and abuse them,\" without knowing this. Please don't misunderstand. We support protecting the jungle and conserving luwaks. While it's true that some shops deal in farmed Kopi Luwak, it's not my place to comment on that.
