    Just FYI for all the members here:

    Here is how this coffee is produced:
    This animal eats some coffee beans

    It then "creates" this a while later

    Then someone sifts through those "nuggets" for the "partially digested" coffee beans to make this

    Now, I have no problem giving that coffee a try (I've never tried it myself)...but I'm REALLY curious who first thought it would be a good idea to make coffee with those beans. I'm thinking a coffee shop owner was pissed at a customer that sent their coffee back saying it tasted like "sh*t" and thought, "So sorry sir, please try out very 'special' blend of coffee."....and it just happened to taste better than their regular beans.

    I agree that Amadeo in Cavite is best known for their coffee. It taste very well and has good aroma.

    I was in Bali 3 weeks ago and went to a place where they produce and market that coffee and they give tours of the process. There is a tasting facility where you pay about 200 pesos for a tiny cup of the civet poop coffee and I gave it a try. Very rich taste, similar to a strong cup of Folgers Colombian brewed coffee. For the price they want for poop coffee I would just stick with Folgers Colombian and make a good strong cup of it. Of course that Colombian is expensive in Dumaguete. I paid 540 for a small container of it in Robinson's a couple months ago.

    Considering that you get enough for about 10 pots of coffee for 540 pesos I doubt it would be affordable or profitable for a coffee shop to sell. But maybe.
