Coffee Break
Anyone tried Kopi Luwak.. or monkey shit coffee ?, Im going thru a coffee thing and have been using the coffee machine that I never ever would have used as im working late. Turns out while im searching for the most caffine impregnated beans, monkeys are fed the coffee berries and shit them out and they charge like $600 for 1lbs of the stuff.
Or if you havent tried the monkey shit, is there somthing like red bull that goes in a coffee machine ? - really strong coffee 101 octane caffine or somthing stronger than esspresso ? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kopi_Luwak

There is often more caffeine in tea than coffee, so I'd recommend a cup of Tetley. Or Assam tea - that's lovely. |

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Civet_cat Closer to an otter or a skunk than a monkey. So do you want to drink coffee made from beans that have been eaten, partially digested and harvested from the faeces of an animal that looks a bit like a cat? Usually I prefer to drink beverages that have not been made from animal poo. |

Don't bother going to any of the high street coffee chains then. Aside from any animal faeces I'm sure the staff shit in the coffee as part of the training. Certainly can taste that way...

It sounds unlikely (because Nestle instant coffee really does taste like civet shit), but nespresso is actually very nice indeed:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nespresso I bought one of these a couple of years ago and it's actually pretty good: |
