Vietnam began to produce "civet" coffee

Vietnamese civet coffee is a scientific replica of Indonesian civet coffee. Indonesian musk cat coffee is made by allowing a small local fox civet to swallow a large amount of coffee beans, and the undigested coffee beans are excreted through the civets' digestive tract and artificially detected from feces one by one. The coffee made from this process has a strong flavor and is praised by connoisseurs, but once you know the specific processing process, it may make people feel sick and nauseous.

Vietnam's new Robusta civet coffee doesn't have that disgusting step in the making process. The coffee beans are washed and added with a chemically synthesized enzyme (the same enzyme that occurs naturally in the civets' digestive tract), fermented in a container, and processed to produce coffee of the same standard as Indonesian civet coffee. Vietnamese civet coffee is almost indistinguishable from Indonesia's in blind tests, but the price is much lower.
