Thanks to the coffee culture explosion, connoisseurs are now proactively seeking new twists on their beloved bean-based beverage. Cappa-this, frappa-that, double mocca frappa dingo - the permutations are endless.

But despite all the commotion surrounding these newfangled concoctions, it's gonna take more than a few choccy sprinkles and an injection of hot milk to get us frothing with excitement. And that's exactly what we told our roving product scouts when they returned from the depths of the Indonesian jungle claiming to have found the most extraordinary coffee in the world.

It's called Civet Coffee, also known as Kopi Luwak, and it comes from Sumatran cat poo.

Basically this feral feline prowls Sumatran coffee plantations at night, choosing to eat only the finest, ripest cherries. The stones (which eventually form coffee beans) are then collected by sifting through the Civet's number twos. Forming one of the world's finest blends.

Put the kettle on!

The product info says "whole Civet Coffee beans" but your reply to Ethan C's question on 22nd January says "pre-ground". Which is it?
Rob, Lincoln - 7th January 2013

Firebox says: Hi Rob, the coffee is beans, it used to be ground coffee about 6 months ago (which is why the old review says ground)

This has already been said, but this product is disgusting and offensive considering what has been in the media recently over the abuse these Civets are put through. People can choose whether or not to buy this, but it's a shame Firebox has decided to still stock this product and profit from suffering. For this reason, I personally, shall be boycotting Firebox.
Michael, Birmingham - 15th December 2012

Firebox says: Hey Michael, we have been assured by our supplier that these are responsibly sourced and that the coffee does not come from Civet's that are kept in cages or suffer any abuse.

Was horrified to read in the Guardian about the horrific abuse of civet cats since this coffee has become a fad in Western countries. Is it worth the cruelty? Profit at any price?
M. Dyet, London - 20th November 2012

Firebox says: Thanks for bringing this to our attention, we take issues like this very seriously. The Civet coffee is produced by the lovely ethical types at Edible - http://www.edible-shop.com/ethics/ Please check out the website for more information.

Bkrisbiyanto, Indonesia - 1st November 2012

Firebox says: It's not delicious, it's DEEEEEEEEEEEEEEELICIOUS! ;)

I would like to ask what kind of a species of this coffee beans. This is Rabusta ?? or Arabica ??. I also heard too, that a real kopi luwak cost something around 600$ per pund.
Daniel, Glasgow - 31st October 2012

Firebox says: Hi Daniel, It is indeed Kopi Luwak! Bear in mind that this is a 57g packet, which is equivalent to (according to Google) 0.12 pounds.
