The likely hood of the poopkins being dangerous is incredibly low. And after you wash them it drops to almost nonexistent. Most issues with using poop as fertiliser comes from it being incorrectly at the wrong time.
I don’t know the history of the photo, but I know some Kopi Luwak ‘producers’ force feed the civets coffee cherries to maximise production. So I can’t say this is a natural shit for a civet, because it could be human induced.
Considering how the civets treat coffee cherries, this would be like if some aliens were forcefeeding you glazed donuts for the same purpose. Abuse in many cases, but it started with a natural attraction being exploited. Ethical sources still uses attracted wild civets or cage free farms
“Hipsters and coffee snobs” aren’t the target audience and the vast majority have probably never tried it. It’s a flex for rich people that have more money than sense.
Tried it in Bali and it wasn’t that expensive at all for a cup. It tasted weird though, could tell it had the taste of something that had been digested. 4/10 if I’m being generous, the teas there were great though.
