Kopi Luwak

Have you tasted the Kopi Luwak before? =) Apparently, it is the most expensive coffee in the whole wide world!!! Adapted from Wikipedia, it says that Kopi Luwak or Civet coffee, is made from the beans of coffee berries which have been eaten by the Asian Palm Civet, then passed through its digestive tract. Passing through the civet's stomach and intestines, the beans are then defecated. Eeeeewwww.....! And i was drinking a cup! Look at my cup of Kopi Luwak!


Well...i'm a coffee lover, but not an expert in drinking coffee. So, i don't know what's the difference between the normal coffee and this expensive coffee. Wikipedia says that after gathering, washing, drying, roasting and brewing, the beans yield an aromatic coffee with much less bitterness (erm...i guess i don't know how to appreciate this precious coffee, haha) and widely know as the most expensive coffee in the world with prices reaching $160 per pound.. wowo...

Actually, my aunt got it as a gift when she was visiting Indonesia. I was 'lucky' to have a cup from her. :p Below is the nice packing the coffee was packed in.

This is how the cat looks like. Look at their feces !! I got the feeling i was drinking their feces, that's why it couldn't go through my throat smoothly.. lol
