    Re: Kopi Luak

    Hello all

    Im the owner of the Animal Coffee site and I wanted to reply to a few comments, if I may?
    I took all the images on my site and I can assure you I didnt make those little nuggets myself, especially not with chook fat and vanilla! It doesnt taste particularly of vanilla so just the chook fat would probably do it.

    Now are you sure these are some nice high-end arabica beans and not some cheapo robusta crud?
    I have both high end Arabica and cruddy Robusta beans, you only need to choose your poison.

    Unfortunately theres a limit to my supply so I cant give everyone a sample but if the people that run this site want to try some please feel free to email me and Ill get some off to you (sans the fancy box).
    My main business is actually rare plants www.sumatraflora.com and Ill be away on a field trip in Borneo from Thursday, for the next month, so please email me before then or youll have to wait a while.

    Cheers, Troy.

    Yup, I think you have too! Do you know if its even the real stuff? As 2muchcoffeeman pointed out previously theres a lot of the imitation/fake stuff floating around out there.

    but i think i have to try it...

    Oh Boy Clare,

    If you even get close to cupping some of this, you are one hell of a brave little CSer and a better person than I am. The mind boggles even thinking about it and I have to stop thinking about it... Yeccchhh!
