How many times have you enjoyed a cup of coffee only to find out it was brewed from cat poop? Well, okay, maybe not that often, but if you live in the Fort Myers, Florida area, it won't be such a rare occurrence after Sept. 29.
To celebrate National Coffee Day, Bennett's Fresh Roast coffee shop will for one day sell the world's most expensive coffee, Kopi Luwak, informally known as "cat-poop coffee."
Harvested exclusively from a collection of South-Asian nations, including the Philippines, Indonesia, and, of course, Java, Kopi Luwak coffee beans pass through the digestive tract of an animal called a civet, which eats the sweet berries that contain the beans, but cannot digest the beans themselves.
