The world’s most exquisite coffee—and certainly the most expensive—is made from coffee beans that have been eaten, partially digested, and excreted by a small Southeast Asian creature called the luwak. Come along as I explore Bali, track down the paradoxical creature that produces Indonesian Kopi Luwak, and learn its secrets.

The story is in the Wanderland Writers anthology Wandering in Bali: A Tropical Paradise Discovered, available June 1st, 2012.
