Civet Cats Coffee Bean. Asian palm civets are increasingly caught in the wild. There are many other members of this genus, such as african civets, which as their name implies are mostly found in central africa.

It’s considered a rare delicacy, and demand for kopi luwak has gone viral since being featured on the oprah winfrey show years ago.
There are two main reasons why kopi luwak or “civet coffee” would taste better than normal coffee. Kopi luwak is a coffee that consists of partially digested coffee cherries, which were eaten and defecated by the asian palm civet (paradoxurus hermaphroditus).it is therefore also called civet coffee.the cherries are fermented as they pass through a civet's intestines, and after being defecated with other fecal matter, they are collected. It’s also the world’s rarest coffee bean too. Civet coffee or kopi luwak as it is known in indonesia, is produced across the island of bali by civet cats.
