From Droppings to Delicacy: How Civet Coffee Is Made #Video

Civet coffee, also known as kopi luwak, is often called the world’s most expensive—and strangest—brew, thanks to its unusual journey through the digestive system of a civet before it reaches your cup. Praised for its smooth, low-acid flavor and wrapped in a story of colonial history, luxury, and curiosity, this coffee has fascinated enthusiasts worldwide. But behind the hype lies controversy: ethical concerns over caged civets and questions about whether the taste truly lives up to the sky-high price tag. Whether you see it as a quirky bucket-list experience or a luxury that’s more story than sip, civet coffee remains one of the most talked-about—and debated—drinks on the planet.
