A Very "ORGANIC" Coffee...

My entry for today is related to my last post.

Syangapala, thanks to those people that visited here. Thanks also for leaving comments! (You know, i wouldnt write if no one would read...) Salamat ng maraming marami po...

Recap on my buhay... We blessed our greedy professors with countless of news articles they wanted as our midterm requirement last week. Hahaha! They must have a hard time with my subject-verb agreement! hahahaha! Lagot sila!


Anyway, let me introduce you to this infamous "Philippine Civet Coffee"


Imagine, a coffee made from an animal? Not exactly. To make the story short, this coffee is made from undigested coffee beans that is extracted from the droppings of the civet cat. Yeah, droppings (Tae, Poo, Shit, Feces, LBM by-product, etc...) Wait, Tae + Poo + Shit - T = Taepooshi (Parang Korean name... Cute!) Back to the story.


The Civet cat or locally known as Musang, lives on coffee trees. These cats have the ability to select the sweetest coffee beans but because they can't digest it, it turns out on their droppings... I asked the shop attendanton bout the taste and she said "Its very delicious with a very exotic flavor..." (What is an exotic flavor anyway?)


According to the very enterprising pinoy manufacturer/seller, it is the RAREST coffee in the world! And its only available at that store (pic below) somewhere in Tagaytay... At least, its from the PHILIPPINES! MABUHAY! (PIC SELLER) It also comes with a steep price of about FOUR HUNDRED PESOS per 100g bottle of ungrinded roasted beans. It's relatively cheap for cofibean but would he drink it? (If its good for his skin, i guess...) I'd better stick with my old favorite, freshly brewed kapeng barako with lots of sugar to feed my pimples...


Anyway, its for a good cause naman. Its for the conservation of the endangered Philippine civet cats.

Diba endangered narin ang Tarsier of Bohol which is famous for its Chocolate Hills?

Hmmm...



Would you drink it?
