The most expensive coffee is the most .. well, you'll decide..
Kopi Luwak, or Civet coffee is an Indonesian originated type of coffee, it's made from coffee berries which have been eaten by and passed through the digestive tract of the Asian Palm Civet. The raw, red coffee berries are part of its normal diet. The animal would select the good beans and digest them where the enzymes in the stomach of the civet add to the coffee's flavor by breaking down the proteins that give coffee its bitter taste
Selling for between $120 and $600 USD per pound, and is sold mainly in Japan and the United States. It is increasingly becoming available elsewhere, though supplies are limited: only 1,000 pounds (450 kg) at most make it into the world market each year
