The morning brew that we enjoy each day has been discovered in the most offbeat ways. Coffee has turned out to be the favourite drink for stress relief and to keep ourselves energised. It was developed after a goat consumed the beans and an accidental discovery involving the roasting of red berries on firefire

the most expensive coffee comes from shit - Kopi luwak or civet coffee Weasel coffee is a loose English translation of its Vietnamese name cà phê Chồn - The specialty Vietnamese weasel coffee, which is made by collecting coffee beans eaten by wild civets, is sold at US$500 per kilogram

@ecksmc some old colleagues of mine and I got together in mid-2000s and bought a pound of this stuff to drink at the office. It wasn't half bad!

@SpaceShanks its expensive for "wasn't half bad" 😆

Would expect a "amazing" for that price

Never tried it myself

@ecksmc it was so long ago I can't recall much other than the novelty aspect at this point. I still believe that real Kona is likely tastier and a lot better price point.

@SpaceShanks yeah timey-wimey effect - you'd need another taste

I'd love to try it though
