Does Starbucks have Kopi Luwak?
It has long been rumored kopi luwak coffee is available in some starbucks stores. Certainly starbucks bought kopi luwak for tastings within the company, however it has never been sold in a starbucks shop. Kopi luwak is the world’s most exclusive (and most expensive) coffee. The main factor of its high price is the uncommon method of production. It is produced from coffee beans which have been partially digested by the indonesian palm civet and then excreted. Yes, it sounds kind of gross, but not to worry!
Is coffee luwak halal?
So, is coffee halal or haram? As already elaborated above, coffee is considered halal because it has no ingredients that can lead to drunkenness or inebriating effects. Also, all coffees are practically halal, including the well-known Luwak coffee, which comes from civet droppings. Overall, while there may be historical and minority views against coffee, the prevailing opinion in Islamic jurisprudence is that it is permissible to consume.
