A quote from the Sunshine Coast Daily .
quote:
Luwak coffee , or kopi luwak , is made in indonesia from beans that have been eaten , partly digested then excreted by a small , cat-like marsupial called the luwak , or Asian palm civet .
The excretions , resembling slabs of peanut brittle { LOL , yeah right } around 10cm long , are then dried & broken up , cleaned & roasted , the result looking not unlike regular coffee beans .
It goes on to say , for $50 a cup , it's becoming increasingly popular in ......now , where was it... hmmm , that's right , here it is , THE UNITED STATES .... sorry guys , that's one cultural difference I'll be trying to uphold lol. | | 8 L A T E S T R E P L I E S (Newest First) | | Shredhead | Posted - 28 Jul 2007 : 07:37:17
