Some of you may recall that I wrote a few posts a while back with Cat Shit Coffee as their titles (here and here). I gave an explanation for that in another post altogether (which also contains a baby panda picture). As I’m sure you suspected, it all revoves around Bob Casey.
Much to my surprise, Cat Shit Coffee is a real beverage. Its real name is Kopi Luak and it comes from Indonesia. The raw coffee beans are consumed by a small cat-like creature named the luak. The beans pass through the animal’s digestive tract and are excreted a few hours later. Plantation workers gather up the beans to be roasted and packed. One pound of these excreted beans costs around $100, which seems just about right for a pound of cat shit.
Now you know.

I loved this part.
“The aroma is rich and strong, and the coffee is incredibly full bodied, almost syrupy. It’s thick with a hint of chocolate”
Umm yeah, some think it tastes like chocolate, others think it tastes like civet ass.
At a whopping $5.00 a cup, I don’t think I’ll be trying it.
