kopi luwak
The most expensive coffee in the world, kopi luwak is made from beans eaten, partly digested and defecated by the Asian Palm Civet, member of the Viverridae family and native to South and Southeast Asia. Celebrated for its unbitter and aromatic flavor, the delicious taste of the coffee is attributed to the amount of free amino acids and short peptides, caused by the enzymes in the stomach of the civet.
