Money In Poop!

When I saw the movie The Bucket List in which Morgan Freeman laughs at Jack Nicholson for drinking the coffee called coffee luwak, I always wanted to know what that was all about.
I came across this coffee estate where I saw the actual production of Coffee Luwak. Coffee that is found in the poop of civet cat. The cat is fed with the coffee fruits and then it passes out from the stools of that cat. This is then collected and dehusked. Thereafter the seeds are dried and roasted to give this most precious coffee which aficionados pay through their nose for it. Here is the picture story from the coffee gardens of Indonesia!
The civet cat is fast asleep. Sorry the picture is blurred.
The seeds that have fallen out along with the civet cat poop!
The seeds are then collected and opened, dried and ready for roasting. Btw, you are seeing vanilla seeds in the top container along with the vanilla pod! The bottom one are coffee!
The seeds are getting roasted in the open hearth.
The people who come to enjoy the cat poop! Costs about Rs.50/- per gram in the gardens.
The coffee bush.
I am sure you would come to know the moment you tasted it, that there is no difference between regular coffee and the one that comes out of the poop of the silly cat! Happy drinking! Cheers!
