p.b said:The idea is that, in the wild, the civet picks out only the choicest coffee berries - ripest / plumpest - and it's these that taste "good".
By force feeding caged civets any old crappy berries it kind of misses the point entirely except the farmer is laughing all the way to the bank. If I could source "wild" Kopi Luwak at a reasonable price I'd give it a go but coffee passes through so many middle-men it would be near impossible to determine wild from farmed.
