Price tag (per serving): $90

The Kopi Luwak originates in the Indonesian island Sumatra and it is produced by a species of civet, called the Paradoxurus. The process involves the mammal eating coffee cherries, digesting them, and defecating them as beans, which are then gathered and grinded into the world’s most expensive coffee. And this coffee is not only expensive, but also rather exclusive, as only a few select establishments can offer it to caffeine enthusiasts. Regardless, the Kopi Luwak has been dubbed the smoothest coffee in the world and it is famous for its rather exotic flavor, with hints of chocolate and caramel.
