Now, I love my coffee, and will go to considerable lengths to brew a great cup of "joe," but when I saw this story in the New Scientist, I thought it was a bit much.
It seems that Indonesian civet cats will ingest coffee beans and pass them through their digestive tract. These beans are then collected off the forest floor, cleaned, and roasted to create what "the world's rarest and most exclusive coffee." At $1,000 USD per kilo, I would think so.
Gah. Is it any wonder that some countries regard Western countries' lifestyles with contempt?
All that's missing is for the coffee to be brewed with the most exclusive water available on the planet… until someone imports water from Mars…
