I'm sorry you had that experience — maybe it was the way that it was brewed when you ordered it? That's not an excuse, though, I know.

Ok, so it is the most expensive coffee there is. I honestly got curious about this and tried it one lazy afternoon with my friends from Manila two weeks ago. I feel sorry for this coffee shop since they are really trying to sell this product.

I asked the barista what to expect with this civet coffee, she said that it has a sweet, nutty and chocolatey taste. I was a bit excited but all went downhill when I had my first sip. It was bland like black water. What the hell were they thinking? I bet 3-in-1 coffees are better tasting than this filth. I was disgusted.

I wish they just take this out their menu. It is disappointing and a total rip off. I will never buy this tasteless coffee ever again.

I admire your courage to drink that liquid p**p! (Oh, sorry for being disrespectful). But really, there is a lot of coffee bean varieties all over the world and why do we settle for something that is ingested by an animal? One word. Gross. If you ask me, I would settle for arabica/robusta blends. Traditional but surely safe and “hygienic”.

I was wondering, what if humans would consume these lovely coffee beans? Can Kangaroo market this too? Just a thought.

@Floyd Robinson — Well, just don’t think about it! The coffee is actually quite good.
