In my time in Batam, i never really like going there during weekends or public holiday time, let alone super long weekend time (unles its CNY)...hehehe...i dont like crowd. If i chose to squeeze with the crowd, i might just as well stay in Sillypore to crowd around,hehehe...

Actually if you happen to see those 2/1 or 3/1 pre-packed Luwak coffees in Batam, they arent exactly real luwak coffees,hehehe...the powdered coffee were mix with few other different types of coffee powder. There is only a very small portion of version 3 luwak coffees in it. Then again, they arent totally fake either...hehehe...

Altogether, they were not exactly original luwak coffee tho,hehehe...but well, the taste however were close enough for myself.

Cost only about S$1 per pack of 10 sachets, hence i really cannot expect too much...hehehe...

This is good to know,hehehe...but i am a lazy person hence i picked the Japanese way to make coffee using a disposable drip bag.


Daiso is selling 12 of these drip bags w/o the coffee in it (shown on above video) at about S$2. I use it to make my own filtered coffee in a cup instantly while i travel to Batam (or anywhere else).




I must say the Japanese were indeed innovative.
