There's this coffee which comes from the pooped out remains of the civet in Indonesia. Around $200 per pound. This blip from a Forbes article:
Then there's the Indonesian Kopi Luwak, a coffee that is only roasted after it's been eaten and excreted by a palm civet.
Interesting what people will do, picking the beans out of the dung of the civet, then making it into this very expensive coffee.

LOL -
its funny that you mentioned this particular type of coffee as it is the coffee talked about in the awesome movie comedy "The Bucket List" - a guy laughed until he cried while telling his friend how the expensive coffee he drank and thought so highly of was made from..... the excretions of a large cat - lol.

I personally like this coffee - (pick English)
