<p>It's not good to promote this kind of coffee, its just a gimmick, and you can read more about the truth behind it here.</p>

<p>I felt like it was good, but not as good as the associated price. Definitely more hype than true flavor benefit.</p>

<p>Was it any better than other comparably-priced quality coffees you've tasted? At the price-point, *any* coffee should have a nice smooth feel to it and a pleasant taste.</p>

<p>I noticed many of the people here aren't very interested in luwak (civet) coffee, but I may beg to differ. The civet coffee I tried was actually quite good! Has a nice smooth feel to it. Although it may be a little bit overhyped, I still think it's qulaity is very good.</p>

<p>Hi Olivia. I haven't tried it yet. But most of my friends told me Luwak isn't that great, plus, too expensive.</p>

<p>At first I was really curious about the sivet or luwak thing, the hype made it really popular. But discovered there isn't much difference on a regular 100% arabica. Also I've red from a source that there was a blind cupper test that they've conducted comparing both the beans, luwak and non luwak. No difference was tasted. Just plain overexaggeration on it's source which is you know.....</p>
