Compared to the civet-shit, it tasted like mud

It's hard to go back. I'm happy drinking my McDonald's Keurig pods because that's all I know. Lots of things like that, like really old scotch.

I am curious now, are other ways of fermenting coffee done? I do enjoy fermentations, lactcobacillus and yeast.

I live in SE Asia now

Expat American teaching English? Or a native?

Actually all coffee referred to as 'natural' will be slightly fermented. There's 3 ways of getting the beans out of the cherry; washing with water ('washed') or just leaving them out in the sun for a month ('natural) which results in some mild fermentation.

The 3rd way is getting a civet to eat the cherry and shit out the bean ;)
