Mumbai's thriving third-wave coffee scene — from Blue Tokai in Bandra to Sleepy Owl in Andheri — focuses on Indian specialty beans. Kopi luwak is a different category entirely. Here's the honest picture.
India does allow the import of roasted coffee for personal use, but understanding the process helps avoid delays at Mumbai's international airports and sea ports.
India permits the import of roasted coffee beans and ground coffee for personal consumption. Kopi luwak — as a roasted coffee product — is legal to import.
India charges import duty on coffee imports (typically 100% basic customs duty on roasted coffee). For small personal orders, your order may be assessed by customs. Duties are paid on the declared value.
India's Food Safety and Standards Authority (FSSAI) regulates imported food products. Commercial importers must have FSSAI registration, but personal imports for own use are generally exempt from licensing requirements.
Pure Kopi Luwak manages all international shipping. Orders are properly declared and documented, minimising customs delays to Mumbai.
Kopi luwak is legal in India. There are no bans on civet coffee. The product is imported and sold commercially by several Indian retailers.
India's coffee culture is booming — but for rare Indonesian kopi luwak, authenticity matters more than price. Here's why serious Indian coffee drinkers choose to order direct from source.
Our kopi luwak is sourced from Java's volcanic highland Arabica plantations — the authentic origin, not a re-packaged version.
