Coco de Mer from Seychelles

Well, let's forget a while from coffee and business. Here, I would like to show you the wonderful of coconut from Seychelles. It is found centuries ago while the explorer of French arrived in Seychelles. They found it floating at the sea and they though that the coconut grows under the sea. Then they called it Coco de Mer (coconut of the sea). This coconut can only be found in Praslin and main land of Mahe, Seychelles.

This coconut is protected by the Unesco and the government of Seychelles prohibits to export this coconut without certificate. The price for one coco is around $250-$500 per piece, empty without any content inside.


I have chance to visit Vallee de Mai in Praslin, the national park where this coconut grows. And the other place is called Jardin du Roi (The garden of the King) in Mahe island. The garden was build by the King of French that colonized this country before British came. The tree is just like palm. There are two kinds of coco de mer, one is male and another is female that produces fruit.

This is the interesting place to come for relax, excursion on tourism. The beach is white and clean. The country has around 85.000 populations. Mostly tourists come for escaping from routine business and peoples attention from public figure.

For accomodation, please prepare your budgeting from US$200 - US$4000 per night. This is for accomodation of three stars hotel to the very luxury resort.

Don't miss it....

Why Order Kopi Luwak from Us

Our Kopi Luwak is from organic coffee plantation between the forest. The plantation is never sprayed with pesticide or fertilized with chemical but it grows very well and produces good berries. Since the land is volcanic land and the level is very high from the sea level so that it is very good for tropical plants and animal to grow.  It has the best coffee quality.

However, the farmers still live under poor condition. Their way to afford better living from their commodity is by joining the farmers cooperative that will find the buyer for them. And also they do not access to the internet so that they can not find their buyer to have the price better. We know internet and we wish to help them.

Kopi Luwak on Media

Most Expensive Coffee “Kopi Luwak”"For serious coffee connoisseurs, people who are looking for a world-class drink rather than a “gourmet” cup, the top fare is made from the highest-quality beans in the world. The beans come from very specific regions and are prized for their unique characteristics. Cultivated on small farms, they are coddled by farmers who care more about quality than quantity"





"A sip of this drink will leave you intrigued. It is rich and exotic in flavor. It also possesses a musty, earthy taste with a slight hint of syrupy smoothness. The fact that the beans originate from an animal is a unique factor to consider. Many experts agree that this gives it an unidentifiable taste that’s unique to Kopi Luwak coffee alone. It is a rare offering and often not available in local coffee shops. However, for those curious enough, you will be able to purchase them from reputable coffee company online."

                                     
                       
This rare coffee has the dubious distinction of being consumed before the customer has even taken a sip. The palm civet, a cat-like animal also called a luwak, ingests fresh coffee cherries but doesn't digest the beans inside. After the beans pass through the civet's digestive system, workers collect them and wash them in spring water. Supposedly, the civet's digestive enzymes make the beans less acidic, improving the coffee's flavor.
Peter Longo, owner of New York City's Porto Rico Importing Co., is drawn to all things exotic and novel, so when he first heard about civet coffee, he knew it would be perfect for his store: "It was right up my alley - such an odd and unique thing." Over the past six months, he's sold about 12 pounds of civet coffee, mostly in small quantities. He charges $50 for one-eighth of a pound, $90 for a quarter-pound, and $175 for a half-pound; each order is custom-roasted.
Civet coffee may sound bizarre, but it's not just for the adventurous. "It's actually mild and smooth, with a piquant aftertaste," Longo says. "It's very good, as long as you don't let your imagination get the better of you."
