Exploring Rare Wild Mocha Arabica from Cau Dat

Among Vietnam’s most coveted coffees, the rare wild Mocha Arabica from Cau Dat stands out for its unique origin and processing. Offered by Weasel Coffee, this specialty is sourced from civet-digested beans collected in the highlands of Da Lat. At approximately 1,500 meters altitude, Cau Dat’s microclimate nurtures small-lot Arabica cherries that undergo natural fermentation in wild civets. The result is a smooth-bodied, low-acidity coffee with deep chocolate and fruit undertones. Each 125g batch is carefully selected and offered in a lacquer gift box, complete with a silk pouch and an informational booklet. Whether whole bean or ground, this single-origin Vietnamese specialty represents both craftsmanship and rarity in a gift-ready format.

What Makes Mocha Arabica Weasel Coffee Unique?

This wild civet coffee is not farmed but foraged from natural habitats, where wild civets selectively consume ripe Mocha Arabica cherries. Enzymatic fermentation during digestion imparts a smoother profile to the beans. Once collected, the beans are thoroughly cleaned, sun-dried, and roasted with precision. The Mocha Arabica cultivar, known for its compact beans and floral notes, thrives in Cau Dat’s cool, misty terrain. The resulting flavor is layered—subtle cocoa, hints of red fruit, and earthy depth unique to weasel coffee. Because of its small yield and meticulous preparation, this is one of Vietnam’s rarest and most authentic offerings.

Crafted for Presentation and Preservation

Weasel Coffee ensures that the quality of this wild civet coffee extends beyond taste. The 125g net weight is sealed inside a one-way valve bag to preserve freshness. This is then enclosed in a hand-sewn silk pouch and placed within a three-layer lacquer gift box, protected further by a hand-woven basket. Shelf life is 12 months under cool, dry storage. Whether for personal enjoyment or gifting, the packaging reflects the same care and rarity found in its contents.
