I've actually tried this 15 years ago in the Mountain Province. I paid $3 for a cup because they make it there and it didn't have the tax and reputation it has now. It's good. Tastes like melted caramel.

I read a while back that there's nothing about the digestive process that makes the coffee taste good - the animals just pick the better fruits first.
