I believe you are no stranger to Kopi Luwak or squirrel coffee, but there are so many interesting things about Thailand that there is even "elephant shit coffee"!

Elephant shit coffee (also known as black ivory coffee), yes, like Kopi Luwak or squirrel coffee, is fed with coffee beans, which are fermented in the body, then excreted out of the body, and then washed and roasted.

The inventor of this kind of shit-like coffee is-Blake Dinkin, who used to run a coffee business in Ethiopia and tried to use animals such as giraffes and rhinoceros to make coffee when living in Africa, and finally found that shit-like coffee is the best.

Don't think that coffee beans must stink because of elephant droppings. These coffee beans digested and excreted by elephants have a unique fruity and grass smell. They all use coffee beans mixed with bananas and rice as feed according to the taste of elephants. They even demonstrate the feeding process, but I am most interested in the process of picking coffee beans from elephant feces.

According to Blake Dinkin, from cleaning to how to preserve shit-like coffee beans have been tested for many years to ensure quality and hygiene, and it is not something that ordinary people can imitate. Their coffee beans will only choose Arabica coffee beans grown in the 1500-meter mountain area of Chiang Mai, with quality assurance.

In addition, it is also important to note that it is best not to add milk to taste shit-like coffee, and sugar is enough before you can taste the true taste of coffee. Shit-like coffee is by no means cheap. A small packet of 35 grams of coffee beans that can only make a few cups is already almost HK $500, which is very expensive.

In addition to having drinks, you can also visit the production process in ANANTARA GOLDEN TRIANGLE ELEPHANT CAMP & RESORT near the Golden Triangle in Chiang Rai, Thailand.

As for Bangkok, Phuket and other places, some hotels also offer:
