Had it in Vietnam once. Vietnam also seems to have some of the best french Roast I’ve ever had. Also, some of the best baguettes and liver pate.

please, Dave, I’m eating breakfast. too much info.
Have you ever had that, dibs? I’d love to try it. Saw an article that people are raising civets & feeding them the beans for harvesting.
well my one experiment on expensive coffee (from those ridiculous clover machines) proved either that people are being duped out of their hard earned cash, or i just have a really crappy palette.

Please elaborate, tybur6. Nothing better to start the day off with than a hot cup of race/class warfare!!!!
Kopi Luwak is the most expensive coffee in the world…from Indonesia & Vietnam…
Kopi luwak , or civet coffee, is coffee made from the beans of coffee berries which have been eaten by the Asian Palm Civet (Paradoxurus hermaphroditus) and other related civets, then passed through its digestive tract. A civet eats the berries for their fleshy pulp. In its stomach, proteolytic enzymes seep into the beans, making shorter peptides and more free amino acids. Passing through a civet’s intestines the beans are then defecated, having kept their shape. After gathering, thorough washing, sun drying, light roasting and brewing, these beans yield an aromatic coffee with much less bitterness, widely noted as the most expensive coffee in the world.
What was/is the point of creating all these bike lanes in NYC if they’re going to close highways and bridges so bikes can ride on them.
Who’s dumb idea was it?? To have a day where bikes take over some highways and traffic re-routing to the streets?
By the way, I discovered yesterday on Flatbush Avenue that were are most definitely not living in a “post-racial” age… in case anyone was thinking that.
