I wonder if they serve this. The most expensive coffee in the world. It comes straight from a monkey's *** (well, actually a civet cat).


BEST COFFEE MADE FROM MONKEY POO; CRAPPUCCINO
DAILY STAR

Wed Nov 21 2001 10:22:30 ET Coffee drinkers are going bananas over a brew
that's made of MONKEY DUNG.

Brits are flooding exclusive US stockists with orders for the brew, called
Kopi Luwak, made from berries that have passed through the digestive
system of Indonesian monkeys. Unlucky coffee plantation staff have to
search through the dung to gather the bizarre "harvest" of coffee berries,
which are said to emerge virtually intact.

Experts reckon the monkey business gives the drink a unique "earthy"
taste, which has made it the most expensive and sought-after coffee in the
world.

It is in such short supply - just 500 lb of it is harvested a year - that
it is virtually impossible to get hold of in Britain and has only limited
availability in the States and Japan.

Experts say the brew first came to light hundreds of years ago, when
explorers sampled it on the Indonesian isles of Java, Sumatra and
Sulawesi.

The monkey - known as the Palm Toddy Cat - lives on a diet of alcoholic
tree sap and coffee berries.

US-based food and drink critic Chris Rubin said:
"Whether it's because the intestinal juices give some special flavour or
because it eats only perfectly ripe berries, the Toddy Cat's droppings
produce what many say is the world's finest coffee."

Some exclusive US outlets sell Kopi Luwak for around a FIVER a cup.
US Coffee supplier Mark Mountanos has snapped up 110 lb of the beans.
He said: "We've had interest from all over the world because it is very
hard to get hold of."

US coffee shop owner Richard Karno ordered a pound from Mark's firm - but
only after he convinced him it wasn't a joke.

He said: "It's the best coffee I've ever tasted. It smells musty, but it
roasts up real nice

Any anti-caffeine effort will only result in bloodshed. Wifey has a tragic addiction to Mountain Dew... and she knows where my guns are[]!

Starbucks is a nice treat once in awhile, I normally just go to Dunkin Donuts for coffee, or better yet Tims (if I get lucky and am near one)

Yeah Dunkin Donuts coffee is much better than Starbucks, and you can order thier coffee and have it delivered to your house. Coworker buys it whole bean and grinds it when he wants a cup. Damn good coffee.

And I know how to Coffee and ride so don't be pushing your agenda on me. I'm responsible for my own actions and won't stand to be made to feel like I'm doing something wrong with my choice to get all Hyped up on Caffine and ride. Sometimes I even eat the beans whole myself with a little dark chocolate melted on them. That really gets me zoomin' and then I follow that with a nice cup of Red Eye and a Mountain Dew chasser.
