The most expensive coffee in the world

cost $50 a cup or USD$600 per pound. It's called Kopi Luwak and is produced predominantly in Sumatra Indonesia.

It is made from coffee berries which have been eaten by and passed through the digestive tract of the Asian Palm Civet.

You read it right. Coffee berries were eaten by an animal called Civet(If you understand cantonese, you might pick up another funny here), they shit it out partially digested and we make coffee from it.

So the next time you are asked what shit you drinking when you are holding your coffee, you know these people know their facts well.
