The most expensive coffee in the world
Do you think it is Starbuck?
The most expensive coffee in the world does not hail from Jamaica or Hawaii, but instead from Indonesia.
Kopi Luwak, the most expensive coffee in the world does exist, and those who drink the expensive coffee insist that it is made from eaten coffee beans, partly digested and then excreted by the common palm civet, a weasel-like animal.
“Kopi” is the Indonesian word for coffee and “luwak” is the local name of this animal which eats the raw red coffee beans. The civet digests the soft outer part of the coffee cherry, but does not digest the inner beans and excretes them.
Apparently the internal digestion ends up adding a unique flavor to the beans, removing the bitter flavor. The excreted beans are then picked up by locals and sold. The most expensive coffee beans can cost up to $600 a pound, and up to $50 per cup. Yes you may have 12 CUPS OF STARBUCKS COFFEE double espresso at the same price.
