You may want to link to this
http://www.innovations-report.com/html/reports/life_sciences/report-31682.html
for two important reasons. Firstly, it's quite informative, and secondly, it's sponsored by (i'm not making this up) Asstel - so what more could you ask for?

Dangit - the sponsor doesn't show up on that link 
- well, that just takes all the fun out of it. It's still informative though.

Thanks pailaway 
I've added the "science" behind the process link and the description of the taste... and I'd like to leave the rest to fertile imaginations
eh? I'll save that for another day...

Any one of these types of coffee - civet, weasel, bat - would make a perfect gift for a not-particularly-close relative. Here's how it would go:
Happy Birthday Aunt Erma!

Incidentally, 'renal' means to do with the kidneys - is this what you mean?

Thank goodness that's not listed on my CV. I've changed "renal" to "rectal"
