Oh yes, I had a cup of this, without even realizing it was the world's most expensive coffee!!
Luwak coffee....at $50 a cup
And I was thinking $5 a cup was expensive, for Bali.
We had a day out discovering different parts of Bali recently, and this was one of the stop overs, to experience different coffees and teas.
The cats they have 'civets' I think they are, process the coffee bean when they digest it, and comes out looking like a rocky road.
From there I think they just clean it up, and roast it.
It tasted, mild yet bitter, had a lot of sediment at the bottom of the cup, so when I stirred in a million sugars, I had to wait for the sediment to settle at the bottom of cup again before drinking it.
Wasn't so bad, but I don't see the fuss about spending $50 for it. Tastes much like any coffee freshly ground really.
I have uploaded some photos and they tell the story. First thing my daughter said when she saw the cats in cages, was how sad and cruel that seems.
Lets see if photobucket works tonight.
