I'd trust the civet to choose the very best coffee beans over a human. And if you don't buy into that, there is no disputing that these beans are costly to retrieve and collect, this usually makes humans take more care preparing and serving them as coffee.

Best fruit I've ever had is that picked at by birds and animals, don't see why it would be any different with coffee. As my grandfather used to say - "los pajaritos no son tontos" - those little birds are no fools.
