Kopi Luwak: Ultra-Expensive Coffee

Although US coffee chain Starbucks is in the process of closing stores amid an economic slowdown, some independent operators are hoping that rare and expensive brews may be the key to business success.
Steve Mort reports for VOA about a coffee house in Florida where the owner has joined a select few who stock Kopi Luwak, a coffee bean that is processed in the digestive system of a small cat-like mammal.
