ATLANTA, GA, US – The coffee world is abuzz about the latest coffee from the remote mountain regions of Thailand: elephant dung coffee.
The journey of elephant dung coffee begins with local villagers harvesting the beans by hand. After they are washed and dried, the coffee beans are mixed with rice, fruit and water and fed to the elephants in an elephant sanctuary. When the elephants relieve themselves a few days later, workers pick the beans from their dung and process them for the gourmet coffee market.
The natural fermentation that occurs as elephants break down the cellulose matter in their all-plant diet naturally removes the bitterness and acidity of the beans. This results in a smooth, delicate coffee flavor with hints of cherry and chocolate that tastes more like a cross between coffee and tea. Your source for high-quality gourmet specialty coffees, J. Martinez & Company, now brings this elite coffee flavor to its customers.
