Mmm… Nothing says “Good Morning” like a nice cup of Joe, especially when the beans come from the poo of an Indonesian cat. Now on sale for £50 a cup, this “civet coffee” is considered the most expensive variety in the world. It ought to be, because the beans are partially digested by the animals, then picked out from the fecal remains.
Yup. That pretty much sounds like the grossest thing ever.
But the international barista behind this smooth blend promises a cup of java so satisfying that you won’t even remember paying all that money. Proceeds are donated to the MacMillan Cancer Trust, so it’s at least comforting to know this is not a scam.
A kilo of these beans (which do get washed by the way) sell for over six times the price of the aforementioned espresso shot, so this is for the hardcore coffee connoisseurs out there! Good thing there are other healthful benefits from sipping on a dark brew like cat dung coffee.
