World’s costliest coffee at Anantara Resorts, Maldives properties

Anantara Resorts has debuted some of the world’s costliest coffee at its Maldives properties and at Anantara’s Golden Triangle property in Thailand
Indeed, the special coffee beans, "BLACK IVORY" are harvested from elephant dung and are sold at $1,100 per kilogram. The beans are digested by an elephant before you drink it.
There are only 50 kilograms, or about 110 pounds, currently for sale.
According to Anantara Group, Black Ivory coffee beans are “naturally refined” by Thai elephants. Research indicates that during digestion, the enzymes of the elephant break down coffee protein, according to the resort. Protein is one of the factors responsible for bitterness in coffee: less protein, less bitterness.
