You might think your $4.25 Starbucks Macchiato was on the expensive side—and youd be absolutely right—but its nothing compared to Kopi Luwak, or civet coffee, which can go for as much as 30 bucks a cup. The civet, a small Asian mammal that looks like a cross between a weasel and a raccoon, is not just a cute logo for the brand. Civet coffee is made from coffee beans found in civet excrement. The civets digestive enzymes ferment the beans, and after much rinsing, the beans extracted from the feces are said to make a dark, smooth, rich, smokey cup of Joe—or as one tasteless term goes, crappuccino.
