If you would like to pay $75 per quarter-pound for coffee beans excreted out of a rare Indonesian marsupial's ass, good news! Thanks to the internets, island critter butt-coffee is just a click away. The stuff's called "Kopi Luwak," and here's more from a promo website:
[T]he paradoxurus [is] a tree-dwelling animal that is part of the sibet family. Long regarded by the natives as pests, they climb among the coffee trees eating only the ripest, reddest coffee cherries. Who knows who first thought of it, or how or why, but what these animals eat they must also digest and eventually excrete. Some brazen or desparate -- or simply lazy -- local gathered the beans, which come through the digestion process fairly intact, still wrapped in layers of the cherries' mucilage. The enzymes in the animals' stomachs, though, appear to add something unique to the coffee's flavor through fermentation.

Link to the website where you can buy it. Oh, and BB's own Mark F. mentioned the stuff in his book "The World's Worst," and recommends it as a beverage of choice for editors. Heh. (Thanks, Ivy)
