About Kopi kothok
Kopi kothok is a Central Javanese coffee preparation associated with Cepu and Bojonegoro. Its defining method boils the coffee grounds and sugar together.
The direct boil produces a bold roasted flavour and fuller bitterness, rounded by sugar infused through the brew rather than stirred in afterward.
It is dark, strong and lightly sedimented, served hot in a small cup without a required milk component.
