Sip, Savor, and See: Experience the Magic of Bali Pulina Coffee Guide
Welcome to Bali Pulina Coffee Plantation, a haven for coffee lovers and nature enthusiasts alike! Nestled amidst the lush landscapes of Bedulu, this plantation offers a unique opportunity to witness the traditional process of coffee making, from bean to cup. Immerse yourself in the aromatic world of Balinese coffee and discover the secrets behind its rich and distinctive flavor. Bali Pulina is renowned for its Luwak coffee, also known as civet coffee. This unique coffee is produced using coffee cherries that have been eaten and partially digested by the Asian palm civet. The civets select the ripest and best cherries, and the fermentation process in their digestive system enhances the coffee's flavor profile. While the process might sound unusual, it results in a smooth, less bitter, and highly sought-after coffee experience. The plantation also cultivates other varieties of coffee, as well as spices and herbs, showcasing the rich agricultural diversity of Bali. At Bali Pulina, you can embark on a guided tour to learn about the coffee-making process, from the cultivation of the beans to the roasting and grinding techniques. You'll have the chance to sample a variety of coffees and teas, including the famous Luwak coffee (for an additional fee). Beyond coffee, the plantation offers stunning views of the surrounding rice terraces and lush greenery, providing a tranquil escape from the bustling tourist areas. You can also purchase coffee, tea, and other local products as souvenirs to take home.
