tegallalang rice terrace

Heading north for another few minutes we will arrive at the coffee plantation where you will be able to sample local blends. These included the prized Kopi Luwak, or beans that have been eaten by the civet cat, not-really-digested, then pooped out, collected up, cleaned, roasted and ground for our drinking pleasure.

These cats eat the coffee berries for the flesh, but leave the beans inside undigested. These are passed and then collected, thoroughly washed, sun-dried, roasted and then ground into coffee powder.

You can even try the process by yourself. Don't forget to take some picture ;)

drink samples

Finally, you will get an opportunity to try a delicious array of hot beverages (including some variant of coffee and tea) along with fried cassava or sweet potato to clear your palate, at no charge. Some drinks available to test are: Lemon tea, Ginger tea, Ginger coffee, Ginseng coffee, Chocolate coffee, Pure chocolate, Vanilla coffee and also Bali coffee.

For those who highly curious and want to try the Luwak coffee, you will be charged IDR50,000 per cup (US$ 5). It only requires one tea spoon of the finely ground beans and so for a one-time taste test.

Luwak coffee is not going to change your life, but it is a delicious and aromatic coffee. You may not believe if the coffee was made from cat poop because it smells exactly the opposite of how you would imagine. When you compare it with regular Bali coffee side by side, it wasn’t even close (in terms of aroma or taste). It’s smooth, dark and slightly sweet. If you aren’t a coffee fan, you may not even notice the difference.

Lunch with volcano and lake view of batur at kintamani

After visiting the coffee plantation, we will drive you up to Kintamani for lunch overlooking the volcano and lake Batur. From there you have a spectacular view of lake Batur and also the view of active volcano of Mt. Batur while enjoying your lunch.

Final stop of this trip is visiting a hidden waterfall. This waterfall is relatively new so you can expect the site is not crowded by tourists. To get to the waterfall you will need to walk down some steps until you reach the edge of the cliff. Special steps have been built to easily reach the river bank.
