How much does a cup of coffee cost in your country? Recently, a cup of tea is sold at 50 pounds in London. It is said to be the most expensive coffee in the world. Do you know what the raw material is? The coffee is made from excrement of Indonesian palm civet. Will you drink it?

Definitely NOT. For one thing, I am not a rich man. Second, it really makes me thick.

They actually feed the beans to the civets and then collect them partially digested from the excrement. It seems pretty clean and would be interesting--if I can afford it.

Are these wild civets in anyway related to the civet cats rumored to have caused s*rs? =(

KEVIN0518......your original line caused me to snicker and snort for about 10 seconds, that was a good one.

The PT Barnum quote comes to mind, "There's a sucker born every minute." *hehehe*

I don't know what it tastes. But Indonesian coffee is in good quality. Once my friend brought me some coffee that were made in Indonesia. It tasted good, not too bitter and I like it very much.
