Today we’ll talk about one very popular and at the same time rare drink. We are talking about Luwak, aka coffee from feces of animals from Vietnam. Sounds awful, agree. However, for this exquisite drink, many coffee connoisseurs from around the world are ready to pay fabulous money. But is there any Luwak coffee in Vietnam (in particular, in Nha Trang)? Where and at what price can I buy it? And in general, is it worth it? In general, let's understand.

Small educational program

To begin with, what is special about the Luwak coffee and why is there so much noise around it? But it is all a matter of the production process, so to speak. The fact is that this coffee is "made elite" by small predatory animals - musangs (they are civet, they are palm martens). In the wild, this animal eats the most ripe grains of coffee. It turned out that in the stomach of musangas, coffee beans are cleaned of all that is superfluous, saturated with a special enzyme, and “at the exit” the most elite and expensive coffee beans in the world are obtained. Actually, the product of coffee vital activity of this little animal is collected, grains are selected, washed, dried, fried and sold at a high price. Coffee gourmets claim that the coffee "produced" by the musang is devoid of unpleasant bitterness and has a pleasant caramel flavor. In fact, their words are not without truth. Luwak coffee really differs from most varieties, only if you do not drink it as sweet as the Vietnamese do. Since with so much condensed milk, even tar with bitumen will be a pretty good treat for yourself.

Without proper coffee processing, Luwak does not look very presentable

Many people ask themselves: What kind of perverted mind does one need to have in order to think of how to brew kaka in a Turk .... animal waste products? Indeed, someone thought of this. But if the history of saving Luwak does not lie, one farmer decided to make coffee "after musangs". It so happened that all of his harvest was destroyed by these same animals. In order not to go broke, an enterprising man collected what was left after the feast of civet, washed, fried and put it in bags. As a result, the entire crop was sold, and satisfied customers came for the supplement. They really liked the new variety of coffee.

Why so expensive

Perhaps the main reason for the popularity of Luwak coffee is the title of the most expensive coffee in the world. Indeed, in Europe and the USA, the retail price of Luwak coffee can reach $ 100- $ 150 per 100 grams. In Asia, of course, prices can be nicer, but still, lewak is noticeably more expensive than any other type of coffee. If we talk about the price in Vietnam, then a 100% quality Luwak costs about $ 1,500 per 1 kg and is sent mainly for export. The main reason for the high cost is how Luwak coffee is made. Of greatest value is coffee, “cooked” by wild civet. Animals are nocturnal and it is at night that they raid coffee plantations, choosing the most ripe and delicious grains. And in the morning, farmers go around their possessions, collecting what is left after the musbans. All this is done manually, so the process is really laborious and painstaking. In addition, the necessary enzyme in the stomach of animals is secreted only 6 months a year. Accordingly, the plantations are “idle” for half a year. This, in fact, is the main reason why you can pay 10-20 times more for a cup of Luwak coffee than for an espresso in the nearest coffee shop.

And here, in fact, are the producers of the most expensive coffee in the world

Of course, enterprising Asians figured out how to put the production of high-end coffee on the stream. To do this, musangs are caught in huge numbers, sit in cages and feed on coffee beans. So it is easier to assemble the finished product, and there is no particular dependence on animals. In general, such a factory for the production of exclusive coffee.

Luwak in Vietnam

First of all, you need to understand that the homeland of Luwak is Indonesia. Also important is the fact that, in principle, good coffee is not enough in Vietnam. Yes, yes, this is the country that ranks second in the world in the export of coffee, but practically does not know how to make it. The fact is that in fact the culture of drinking this tonic drink was brought here by the French in the colonial period. They brought it in, but they failed to properly vaccinate it. Therefore, what the Vietnamese themselves drink will cause gastronomic shock and horror for a real coffee gourmet: coffee concentrate from a plastic bottle with a huge amount of condensed milk and technical ice from a bucket. Of course, there are establishments where they make quite good coffee. However, in general, this is far from the country of coffee aesthetes. Be that as it may, we have prepared an article on the topic, so if you plan to take the fragrant grains home, we recommend that you familiarize yourself. But back to the Luwak.

As you know, they will not serve gourmet coffee in such establishments.

And now a moment of revelation! The fact is that there is practically no lewak in Vietnam. Exactly. 99.9% of what is sold in stores in packages labeled Kopi Luwak is either a fake or a mixture. By a mixture, we mean coffee, consisting of Luwak, Arabica, Robusta, and even anything else. At the same time, the percentage of precious coffee in the best case is 30 out of 100. You also need to understand that we are not talking about any selected most ripe grains of coffee for musanga. Animals eat everything they give, all year round, which affects the quality of the final product. So, if you want to try real expensive copy of Luwak coffee, produced in accordance with all the rules and canons of this exquisite drink, you need to go not to Vietnam. Alas, this is so. Accepting this fact, you will not be surprised why in Nha Trang for Luwak coffee, the price is $ 20- $ 30 per kilogram. And do not think that if you bought in a nearby store for $ 70 kg, then this is just that real Luwak. Therefore, if you want to buy high-quality coffee in Vietnam, do not bother with this exquisite variety. Take better mocha. The plantations of this coffee are located in Daklak, where there are all conditions for growing this particular variety. Yes, he did not visit the beast’s stomach, but the price for it is quite adequate, and the quality is very good.

In Nha Trang, musanga is painted on almost every pack of coffee

The dark side of Vietnamese Luwak

And the dark side of Vietnamese Luwak coffee lies in the conditions of keeping these same musangs on farms. Impressive animal lovers are advised not to read further. So, they contain animals on farms in very tight cages, completely depriving them of the ability to move normally. This, by the way, is another reason for the poor quality of Vietnamese lewak. In addition, civet is fed in Vietnam by no means ripe and selected grains. Hungry animals have to eat everything in order not to starve to death. It is also important to understand that in captivity these animals do not breed, so farms have to constantly capture wild specimens. Needless to say, a wild animal will not live long in such cramped conditions. The fact is that the majority of Vietnamese treat animals quite consumerly, so civet in the production process of local Luwak is only a consumable. Well, what can I say, the demand for a cheap Vietnamese “leftist” is growing, new farms are opening, thousands of new animals are being caught. Here you have a couple of photos.

Many may object, they say, we were on coffee plantations, we were taken there on an excursion, these animals live normally for themselves. Firstly, you do not need to compare the tour and industrial production. Secondly, farms with musangs should not exist in principle. The production of Luwak in this way automatically reduces its value and the fact of the existence of this variety becomes almost meaningless. Just think, you do not drink rare coffee, hand-picked after the nightly arrival of predatory animals. You drink coffee selected from the excrement of half-dead animals sitting in a cage. Therefore, if you decide to buy Luwak coffee from Vietnam, then be prepared for the fact that you simply overpay for regular Arabica or Robusta.

Oh yes, another moment. If you think that the production of a tourist caterer (otherwise you cannot call it) is worth it, then please close the browser tab. This site was not created for you. And our team has no desire to share information with you. We hope that this article will discourage the desire to buy Vietnamese leuvak from at least a dozen or two guests of Vietnam. In this country, a lot of beautiful, but certainly not this "elite" sort of coffee. But in Indonesia we would recommend buying Luwak coffee. There they produce it more often correctly.

What is the most expensive coffee in the world? This is the question that often arises among coffee gourmets. This interest is easy to explain. Perhaps we are talking about the pinnacles of excellence in coffee production, a sort of Rolls-Royce, about something that you definitely need to try, and then ... safely forget.

The price is high, but the quality?

A suitable question. Everything is simple here: only freshly roasted coffee will bring to connoisseurs everything that they value and enjoy, and at the same time, grains do not have to be prohibitive in price. Let coffee have the highest price - its taste will be average maximum, if a year has passed since the roasting.

It is logical to assume: the top of coffee craftsmanship, comparable to the Rolls-Royce, should be considered the most expensive freshly roasted coffee. Such a statement can be considered true. Here are the subtleties. Sometimes the high price of many coffee varieties is composed not so much of demand and taste as marketing tricks. Perhaps, only Jamaican Blue Mountain brand coffee justifies its value, just look at its green beans and recall the highest quality control. However, we will be consistent.

The most expensive coffee

Learn about several varieties - rare and very expensive.

Mine Luwak

Worldwide, the most expensively priced Indonesian coffee is Kopi Luwak. Its place of production is the eastern part of the island of Java, not far from Surabaya. A special animal, reminiscent of a squirrel, is involved in the production of coffee - palm civet. And the production method of Kopi Luwak (such is the international spelling) is very unusual.

If you approach strictly, then the word "Luwak" is supposed to be pronounced as "Luwak." However, most are accustomed to pronounce nevertheless "Luwak." So retraining is optional.

Thus civet eat green coffee berries in the wild. On an industrial scale, this happens on a farm.

Now the history of Kopi Luwak coffee is known to many. To a certain extent, we see an example of ingenious marketing. The fact is that palm civet, also known as lyuvaki or musanga, eats ripe coffee berries with pleasure. Their flesh is safely digested, and the grains are fermented and most naturally removed from the digestive system of animals.

When this process is completed, and the grains are dried in air, they are washed, dried again, and then fried. That is how the Indonesian Kopi Luwak, the most expensive coffee in the world with a truly unique processing, is obtained.

It is believed that the best flavoring and other qualities of coffee beans provide wild civet. At night, animals make their way to coffee plantations, find the best, most ripe and juicy fruits, enjoy them, and then leave “gratitude”. Coffee farmers carefully look for every pile left by the animals and thus harvest.

This is how coffee grains look after treatment with enzymes of gastric juice

Of course, the story is quite curious. Is there a catch here?

1. Firstly, all over the world, the offerings for Kopi Luwak clearly exceed the total digestive abilities of all Indonesian civet. It is not surprising, because the remaining varieties of Indonesian coffee are cheaper every fifteen times! By the way, other coffee countries - China, the Philippines and some others - also took up the production of this special kind.
2. Secondly, imagine: a small animal runs among forests and coffee trees, feasts on the best fruits. Is it convenient to go after such a “producer” and collect litter? So all animal powers are seated in special farms in cells and, therefore, eat what they are given. And it’s pretty hard to believe the farm oaths that civet feed only the best coffee berries. However, such a situation brought benefits to the Indonesians: the so-called real supposedly wild Luwak is already on the market, and its price is two times higher than the standard.

Theoretically, each civet eats about a kilogram of coffee berries daily. The yield of coffee beans in this case is 50 g. Moreover, civet is a predator, so they don’t sit on a berry ration. Usually they are fed chicken. Moreover, meals take place mainly in the evening and at night, when the animals are cheerful and active. During the day, the lyuvaks for the most part sleep or are inhibited and are indifferent to everything.

Another explanation for the high cost of the Mine Ljuvak is that in captivity civet does not breed. So the production rests only on the periodic fishing of wild animals. There is another point: a special enzyme that makes coffee beans unique is produced in the blood of civet only half a year, and the animal’s body is inactive for the second half. On some farms, Luwak are kept in cages only during the period of enzymatic activity, and then released “home”. And in the new season they catch other animals, and sometimes it is more profitable than keeping them for nothing.

On the plantations themselves, Luwak coffee is estimated at approximately 150 thousand rupees (this is $ 15) per 100 g. The wholesale price per kilogram is about $ 100. When coffee goes to Europe, the price of a kilogram reaches four hundred dollars, and after packaging - already $ 100 per 100 grams.

Coffee connoisseurs claim that Kopi Luwak has a divine taste with hints of chocolate in aroma and aftertaste. Analogues for this drink simply do not exist. If you drink it without sugar, the taste is slightly astringent, but it becomes softer. However, many are convinced that the price of the brand is higher than that of the product itself. However, everyone has their own tastes.

The unique fermentation of Kopi Luwak was explained by one scientist from Canada. In the digestive tract of civet, protein breakdown of coffee beans occurs. Due to this, bitterness practically disappears during roasting from grains, but the taste and aromatic qualities are amazingly enhanced. Unfortunately, it is not yet possible to synthesize the desired enzyme and establish mass production of this particular type of coffee.

About 1,000 pounds of Kopi Luwak coffee are sold annually on the coffee market. In Australia, near the town of Townsville, there is a Heritage Tea Rooms coffee shop, where you will have to pay 50 Australian dollars or 33 US dollars for a cup of drink.

Black Ivory

Luwak's sales success has provided a great idea for working and smart Thais. They decided to make coffee using the digestive system of elephants. So in the north of Thailand, a special zoo farm appeared. There, 20 elephants are conscientiously engaged in the production of elite coffee beans and one of the most expensive coffee varieties in the world called Black Ivory Coffee. What does the Black Tusk / Black Ivory mean.

Thus Black Ivory Coffee is mined

Note that the stomach of an elephant is much larger than the corresponding organ of civet. The process lasts about a day. Together with grains, an elephant eats a special mixture of vegetables, sugarcane and bananas. As a result, coffee beans are saturated with fruit and vegetable aromas, fermented in the gastric juice and already excreted as a special product.

A big plus for inveterate vegans: Black Ivory can be considered a suitable product, because unlike civet, elephants are real vegetarians. To get one kilogram of this type of coffee, an elephant eats about 33 kg of the best Thai Arabika beans, which are grown on alpine plantations and harvested by hand. And special veterinarians periodically measure the level of caffeine in elephant blood.

About $ 1,100 per kilogram - this is the price of this coffee for the elite. And you can try it in just a few places. These are expensive hotels in the Golden Triangle (it is limited to Thailand, Laos and Burma) and the Maldives (for example, Anantare). A cup is estimated at "just" $ 50. The amount of coffee on the world market is extremely small - last year the offer was only 60 kg. And to develop this variety, it took 300 thousand dollars.

Coffee from the Islands

Slightly lower than that of Kopi Luwak, prices for island coffee varieties are kept - beans from St. Helena, Blue Mountain from Jamaica, New Caledonia.

Jamaican coffee is the result of excellent marketing, which is not a single episode associated with excrement. Here, barrels are exported as well as the name of James Bond. Plus the strictest quality control and substantial fair demand.

The variety is known as the highest growing. Plantations with an area of \u200b\u200babout six thousand hectares are located at an altitude of 1.2 km above sea level, and the Blue Mountain Range itself rises more than two kilometers.

Buy Blue Mountain is incredibly difficult, because 90% of the total volume is bought by Japan, and the remaining 10% in the international market is snapped up by Britain and the USA. This coffee brand is actively faked in Jamaica by scammers. Moreover, it is unrealistically impossible to calculate counterfeit, only taste gives it.

New Caledonia produces just as rare and one of the most expensive coffees. Island plantations are located south of the Coral Sea, east of Australia. Export is within a ton. So, if you buy 10 kilograms of New Caledonia, then you will get 1% of the annual production volume!

In the south of the Atlantic Ocean there is a tiny piece of the tropics with an area of \u200b\u200bapproximately 47 m2. This is the island of St. Helena, where the life of the exiled emperor Napoleon Bonaparte ended. And here, since 1733, coffee has been grown. The popularity of coffee of St. Helena grew rather slowly, only all its advantages have been appreciated only recently. St. Helena Coffee is an environmentally friendly product. When growing it, only organic fertilizers are used.

And what conclusion can be drawn? The most expensive coffee is far from always the best. You like some drink more than others - which means that it is the best. Here coffee can be compared with music, only you decide what to drink. And the opinion about the best coffee is a subjective matter. But if you are still attracted to coffee with the highest price, do not forget - it must certainly be freshly roasted.

The small animal Luwak, also known as musang or palm civet, belongs to the civet family. are the main habitat of the Musangs, but the area of \u200b\u200btheir resettlement is quite diverse. The main area of \u200b\u200bdistribution of Luwak is Africa, South and Southeast Asia, including the Philippines and Indonesia. The animal Luwak with a body weight of 1 to 15 kg looks like a marten or ferret; its body length varies from 30 cm to 1 meter. Luwak activity is predominantly at night. Often, animal Luwak is the goal of hunters who want to get not only valuable civet fur, but also edible meat.

Food

Animal Luwak lives on trees and is a small predator, but the basis of its nutrition is not only meat, but also various insects, as well as fruits, nuts and other plant components, including grains of coffee trees. Musanga carefully selects the most ripe and undamaged coffee fruits due to its scent, which allows them to find aromatic and delicious coffee beans.

Elite coffee production

Animal Luwak eats coffee beans in such quantities that it can not digest them. When coffee beans enter the Luwak organism, they are fermented, which subsequently affects the taste of the beans. In the stomach of the animal, the process of digesting the pulp of coffee fruits takes place, and coffee bones are excreted in a natural way, acquiring a slightly changed look. They are collected, thoroughly cleaned and rinsed from luwak litter. After that, the coffee plantation workers dry the coffee beans in the sun - so they are slightly roasted. After such actions, the sale of coffee begins, on which the hatchback is often depicted - an animal that "produces" an elite product.

As the research results show, such coffee is safe for consumers, since after careful processing of the beans they have practically no pathogenic bacteria, and subsequent roasting of the beans kills the remaining ones.

The production of such coffee requires a lot of manual work, takes a lot of time and effort, so it turns out a little. The rarity and high cost of coffee is a consequence of the destruction of the natural habitat of the Luwak, which causes a decrease in their number.

For some time, palm civet was considered a dangerous pest that ate all ripe fruits, so they were exterminated by Indonesian farmers. However, as it turned out, it was in vain, because with the help of these small animals you can earn a lot of money in the production of elite coffee called "Mine Luwak", which has become the most expensive today.

A bit of history

When Indonesia was a colonial possession of the Netherlands, local farmers demanded more taxes in the form of coffee beans, which were very much appreciated by the local population. Then Indonesian farmers noticed that coffee beans from the excrement of musanga are practically not digested, so they began to be thoroughly cleaned and delivered to the Netherlands. However, the coffee from these beans turned out to be so aromatic and tasty that it began to gain popularity outside Indonesia. So the original technology for the production of “Copy Luwak” coffee was born, which today is considered the rarest and most unusual. Many coffee lovers speak of it as a fragrant drink that has a caramel flavor with a chocolate touch. Whether or not to try such coffee is up to you!

Yes, the hero of Jack Nicholson was very surprised when he found out that his beloved, most expensive coffee in the world “Kopi Luwak” is made from coffee beans, previously digested with palm civet. That is, coffee with a price of 50-100 dollars per cup is actually made from crap.
  But what kind of coffee is this? Why are coffee lovers from all over the world, especially residents of Japan, happy to give quite serious money for it.
  Firstly, it is a very rare variety of coffee. It grows on the islands of Java, Sumatra and Sulawesi. But not the growing zone makes it valuable. Its value is in “production technology”.
In this region there is a small animal, a species of civet, a small animal of the civet family, and a small predator. Once, he was considered a pest and fought by all known methods. The fact is that civet Luwak, who lives on trees, loves grains of coffee. Moreover, the diet of this tiny animal is only the finest and most ripe grains.
Once, someone (history did not remember this first entrepreneurial person) decided that you could make good money on this pest. How? To do this, it is necessary to explain the "production technology" of this coffee. The animal, passionately loving coffee beans, consumes them much more than it can digest. Undigested grains pass through the digestive system of the Luwak and are processed with enzymes. Grains of coffee come out of the beast in a completely natural way.
  It is not known who first tried to brew coffee from the animal’s waste products, but everyone who still drinks this coffee claims that the taste of the drink is simply unusual. This coffee has a caramel hue and smells of chocolate.
  The scientific justification for this phenomenon was given by Canadian scientist Massimo Marcone. He discovered that the digestive activity of civet breaks down the proteins in coffee beans. Thanks to this, when roasting, the taste and aroma of coffee is further enhanced. Some proteins are completely washed out of the beans, so the coffee obtained from them is less bitter.
  But, despite the fact that the process is quite explainable, it is not possible to reproduce this coffee in an “artificial” way. At least for now.
  Therefore, local residents are diligently collecting vital products of Luwak, from which the most expensive and exquisite coffee in the world is prepared - “Kopi Luwak”.

Coffee is a favorite drink of the inhabitants of the Earth. It is with him that the morning of many Russians begins. Someone loves instant coffee, someone likes brewed coffee. Someone prefers to grind grains and cook in a Turk. What can I say, a matter of taste. And true connoisseurs of this drink prefer to drink the most expensive coffee in the world, paying tribute to fashion and the established image of a coffee lover. What varieties of those who are interested in this issue are most quoted?

Top five

In fact, there are only two main coffee varieties - arabica and robusta. The first one is believed to have a finer flavor and contains less caffeine than robusta. The second, cheaper, with bitterness and sourness, contains more caffeine. The most common in the world is arabica. How much does coffee cost? How is its price formed? Here are just some data, a kind of hit parade of expensive coffee.

Fifth place

The fifth place on this list is occupied by “Blue Mountain” - coffee, the price per kilogram of which reaches $ 90. It is made in Jamaica and is famous for its mild taste without hints of bitterness. As a basis, it is used to make the famous Tia Maria liquor.

Fourth place

The fourth is Fazenda Santa Ines. It comes to $ 100 per kilo. It is produced in Brazil (Minas Gerais) manually. Differs from others in the sweet aftertaste of berries and caramel.

Third place

Third - coffee "St. Helena" (there is such an island, famous for the fact that Napoleon was in exile there). They make it from the fruits of the same Arabica, which, however, grow only in this place. Coffee is famous for its delicate fruity aftertaste.

Second place

The second place of our hit parade is Esmeralda, the most expensive type of coffee obtained by traditional, emphasize, processing. The price per kilogram reaches $ 200! It is produced in the mountains of Panama, its western part. It has an original taste, which is believed to be the result of careful collection and a cool climate.

The most expensive coffee - from excrement?

And finally, the most “valuable” is “Kopi Luwak”. You can translate the first word as, in fact, coffee. The second word is the name of the animal, thanks to which the most expensive coffee in the world appears. The fact is that it is "produced" with the help of African palm civet very unusual. The animals (resembling squirrels in appearance) eat the berries of a coffee tree. Further - everything passes through the intestines of civet, while the coffee beans remain undigested.

Originally the most expensive coffee in the world - from Indonesia. Its plantations are located on the islands of Java and Sumatra. Farmers of these plantations collect ripened fruits in a traditional manner. After that they feed civet, which are contained in special enclosures. The animals eat them with pleasure. Then, when the coffee beans themselves come out with excrement, they are cleaned, washed, dried. Later - slightly fried.

The most expensive coffee in the world, obtained as a result of the vital activity of Indonesian civet, is famous for its very delicate aroma. Natural enzymes give it a special softness of taste. The retail price for a cup of such a drink can reach up to $ 50. And the cost of a kilogram is up to a thousand.

Limited supply

Each year, only about five hundred kilograms of Kopi Luwak beans enter the coffee markets. Therefore, it is appreciated. It's all about rarity and elitism, and, of course, taste. What epithets just do not exalt the merits of this coffee sellers and manufacturers: caramel, with a touch of cherry, a drink of the gods, with the aroma of vanilla and chocolate. In any case, this is a premium drink, which certainly enjoys great demand among the most zealous coffee drinkers, like everything elite and rare.

Historical perspective

There is even a legend about the origin of this "drink of the gods." It is said that during the time of colonization, planters forbade workers to take coffee grains from plantations due to its high cost. Then people began to pick up coffee specifically treated with civet from the ground (it was already impossible to sell it). The grains were washed, dried, and ground. Brewed such coffee and drank. Then one of the white planters tried this drink for the poor. Amazed at the delicate taste, he began to promote the product on the market. Since then, Kopi Luwak delights drink lovers with its unique taste.

By the way, in Vietnam, for example, there is a counterpart to the famous “Luwak” - coffee called “Cheon”. It is cheaper and made in a similar way. It is said that this type of coffee has an even more pronounced aftertaste of grains processed with enzymes of the local animal variety.

African civet

Thus, the main producer of an expensive product is civet itself. The animal belongs to the same family as the mongoose, outwardly even resembles it. Although by habits it is more like a cat. Civet spends most of his life on trees. Like a cat, she knows how to put her claws into pads. Local residents often tame civet, and they get along well with people: they drink milk, live in houses, respond to nicknames, regularly catch rodents, sleep at the owner’s feet, and, in general, turn into pets. This animal is also used as a source of musk used in the perfume industry. And, of course, for the production of high-end coffee.

They say the best is from wild civet, which make their way to the plantations at night. And in the morning, farmers, as thanks from the animals, collect excrement under coffee bushes as raw materials for the production of the “drink of the gods." Each civet can eat up to one kilogram of coffee berries per day. On the way out, this can only give up to fifty grams of processed grains. I must say who civet feeds on animal food, and not just berries. In the diet of domesticated civet there is, for example, chicken. These are nocturnal animals. And they, as a rule, do not breed in captivity. Among other things, the enzyme, so liked by coffee lovers, animals can produce only six months. The rest of the time they are kept "wasted" or even released into the wild, so as not to feed in vain. And then they catch it again.

A new word in coffee production

At the moment, according to some reports, the civet has lost the palm to the elephants, from the excrement of which, it turns out, they also produce elite coffee in Thailand. The technology is similar, but this type of coffee is called “Black Tusk”! Bon appetit to all!
