The best part of waking up, is civet cat shit in your cup...
Indonesia's top Islamic body declared Tuesday that Muslims can drink civet coffee—the world's most expensive coffee, which is extracted from the dung of civet cats.

Kopi Luwak, which takes it name from the Indonesian word for civets, is made from hard beans that have been eaten by the nocturnal critters and then fermented in their stomachs before being pooped out and roasted. Civet cats are mongoose-like animals.

It's highly prized for its smooth flavor and bitterless aftertaste, sometimes fetching well over $200 a pound ($440 per kilogram) online.
