ABOUT US

Animalcoffee is a small boutique roastery based in Bali, Indonesia. We began as a rare seed business in the late 1990’s when Troy Davis, the owner, spent several months of each year in Sumatra, Java and Borneo collecting unusual plant seeds for export to public gardens, universities and private collectors. Over a period of time Troy developed a network of porters, mountain guides and seed collectors, many of whom work in coffee plantations and who continue to work for Animalcoffee collecting kopi luwak.

All Animalcoffee kopi luwak is sourced from wild civets; we do not farm or cultivate civets under any circumstances. Our operation remains necessarily small due to the limited quantity of wild collected kopi luwak we can obtain.
We do not regularly wholesale to third party retailers and Animalcoffee kopi luwak is not available in supermarkets in Bali or anywhere else.

Animalcoffee roasts small quantities of kopi luwak on a daily basis, specifically on demand. This allows us to roast for each individual order, and to control the quality of kopi luwak purchased under the Animalcoffee brand. It also ensures that the kopi luwak you purchase from Animalcoffee is fresh, an important consideration when purchasing premium coffee.

Animalcoffee is passionate about good coffee; we are involved in the industry from the initial collection of kopi luwak through to coffee preparation in the cafe. We have an extensive collection of antique coffee equipment and are currently experimenting with roasting other types of coffee using antique roasting equipment and age old artisanal roasting methods. We’re hoping to make some of this coffee available through the site soon.
