Default Yuk, Doo-Doo Coffee!

There's no telling what else is out there in this world!

JAKARTA, Indonesia -- There's drip coffee -- and then there's coffee
from droppings. One of the world's most expensive coffees is
supposedly made from droppings of weasellike civet cats. The story
goes like this: The fussy Southeast Asian animals only eat the best
and ripest coffee berries. Enzymes in their digestive system help to
break down the bean. Workers collect the bean- containing droppings
for so-called Civet or Weasel Coffee. Agus Susanto owns three
fashionable cafes in Indonesia's capital, Jakarta. He says the popular
Civet Coffee has a strong taste and an even stronger aroma. Some even
say it's an aphrodisiac.
