Brew Ha-Ha

This Coffee Tastes Like Crap, Mate

Yes, we love our coffee in Australia, but we've saved the most expensive for last - and it's crap, literally. Kopi Luwak, made in Indonesia from coffee beans excreted by native civet cats, is reputedly the world's rarest and most expensive coffee, painstakingly extracted by hand from the animals' forest droppings. The civet cat brew has just gone on sale in Queensland, selling for $50 a cup at the Heritage Tea Rooms, west of Townsville.
