Top 5 The Most Expensive Coffee in The World

1.      1.  Fazenda Saint Inez, Minas Geraiz, Brazil.

 

This one is the highest rated in the Championship Cup of Excellence in 2006 in Brazil, with a combined scored of 95.85 points out of 100. A famous cafe in Canada (Caffe Artigiano) and two other cafes in Australia have bought this coffee for 50 dollars per pound. Do you ever think to spend 50 dollars or about Rp 500.000 to drink a cup of this coffee? I would never do that unless somebody treating me for drinking a cup of this coffee.

2.       2. El Injerto-Huehuetenango, Guatemala

 

I think its name is a little strange (like a crying baby “huehuehue…” hahaha…just kidding) for some people. But, what’s in a name? I do not care let’s see the price.

Coffee El Injerto is one of the favorite coffee in the world. This coffee is pretty well known and comes from the region of Guatemala, called Huehuetenango (that’s why the coffee called so). El Injerto has been in the top 10 of the Cup of Exellence competition every year it was held. The subtle deep, rich characteristics of this coffee are brought out best with a medium to medium-dark roast. The truly unique aroma and long finish is a feast for the senses. If you want to taste the coffee, prepare to pay cash of 50 dollars per pound (Same as number 1).

3.     3.  St. Helena Coffee from St. Helena Coffee Company.

 

Talking about St. Helena, I remember a man who was imprisoned there in the island. Do you who is he? One of the famous figure in the world, a great leader, an emperor, best known for his motto “a soldier walks on his stomach” when he lead an army who is hungry. That man is Napoleon Bonaparte.

St. Helena coffee was grown on an island in Africa which is called St. Helena Island, its far is about 1,200 miles away from the coast of Africa. This island is well known because Napoleon Bonaparte was imprisoned there until his death. St. Helena coffee is unique, as it is not just a pure Arabica coffee, but a single type of Arabica bean known as Green Tipped Bourbon Arabica. Green Tipped Bourbon Arabica is a subtle and delicate bean, which requires great care during harvesting, wet processing and roasting, to ensure that all of its wonderful characteristics are preserved for the enjoyment of the true coffee lover. This coffee can be purchased with 79 dollars per pound.

4.      4.  Hacienda La Esmeralda, Boquete, Panama

 

A beautiful name for a coffee, right? You want to know why? Because it nice to be said. If you don’t believe, just try to say it… have you? Well, are you believed me now?

This coffee is grown under the shade of the old guava tree which cultivated in Hacienda La Esmeralda on the slopes of new mount in Boquete, Panama. Hacienda La Esmeralda has 134 ha. of coffee in production. Pequeña Suecia in Jaramillo (50 hectares, about half in production) is jointly owned with the Peterson family and a Bennett cousin. La Lorenita (18 ha. in production) is jointly owned with the Roberto Motta family. The farms employ about 45 people on a permanent basis, swelling to 300 during the coffee harvest. Including families, this means that over 1,000 people depend directly on the farm for sustenance. Farm direction has been in the hands of the Peterson family for the past 35 years and is now into its third generation. It is very popular coffee because of its taste and its aroma that so seduced. You can enjoy this coffee with ONLY 140 dollars.

If you want to try, do not forget to ask me with you. Haha… just kidding, never mind.

5.       5. Luwak Coffee, Indonesia

 

Who does not know the Luwak coffee? You don’t? The Luwak Coffee is come from Indonesia. Luwak coffee is produced from the coffee beans that have been eaten and passed through the digestive tract of the Luwak (Asian Palm Civet). A luwak eats the berries for their fleshy pulp. In its stomach, proteolytic enzymes seep into the beans, making shorter peptides and more free amino acids . Passing through a luwak's intestines the beans are then defecated , keeping their shape. After gathering, thorough washing, sun drying, light roasting and brewing, these beans yield an aromatic coffee with much less bitterness. This coffee come from the West Lampung in Sumatra Island, Indonesia. But now, it can be found in some and many parts of Sumatra and Java. It is also produced in the Philippines (where the product is called motit coffee in the Cordillera, kape alamid in Tagalog areas) and also produced in East Timor (where it is called kafé-laku ). Weasel coffee is a loose English translation of its Vietnamese name cà phê Chồn , where popular, chemically simulated versions are also produced. This coffee is also very well known to the whole world. Even in the United State of America, there are a café or coffee shop that serves this coffee with a fantastic / expensive price. This coffee can reach price 160 dollars per pound. It is the most expensive coffee that usually enjoyed by millions people around the world.

Do they still like to drink this coffee if they thinking about from what it was made of? It seems like many people like to drink animal scats. I can never imagine drinking something like this if I thinking about from what it was made of.
