Civet Coffee is described as having a rich chocolate like flavour with no aftertaste. This is thought to be due to the breakdown of the bean's proteins in the Covets intestine. These proteins being responsible for the bitterness of coffee generally.
An alternate theory is that the beans are of superior quality before they are even ingested. At any given point during a harvest only some coffee berries are perfeclty ripe. Some people claim that the civet has evolved to only forage for these ideal berries. As a result only the best coffee beans are excreted, resulting in the best civet coffee avaliable.
