Dear Mary Ann, Thanks for sharing this album. A good friend of mine let me taste this civet coffee, brewed a la "cafe Americano" which does it injustice. I can't wait to try it as an espresso. I heard she paid $160 a pound which is steep indeed. It probably goes down well with a biscotti. I certainly couldn't justify the cost but I'm willing to try it again :). God bless, Ding

Civet coffee (Cape Alamid or Kape timusang) is made from coffee cherries that have been eaten by - and thus passed through the digestive tract of - the Asian palm civet. Cordillera Coffee sources from local growers in the Cordillera region. The natives of Cordillera up north go to forests to hunt for coffee beans excreted by the Philippine Civet cat. The coffee beans come from the sweetest cherries that grow wild in the forest. The beans are washed and dried out in the sun and roasted, until the strong chocolaty aroma comes out. Because of its limited supply, its price is steep – Php 1,000 for a 50-gram bag.
