Most fancy coffee fans can only dream of sipping coffee made from Saint Helena coffee beans in the South Atlantic, because they are rare and not cheap.

Green tip bourbon Arabica (green-tipped Bourbon Arabica) on St. Helena, an 18th-century coffee tree from Yemen, produces some of the world's most expensive and fascinating beans, Agence France-Presse reported.

The most famous fan of St. Helena coffee is the French emperor Napoleon. Napoleon died on St. Helena in 1821. He lived in a rat-infested house during his six-year exile on St. Helena. He is rumored to have said that coffee is "the only good thing" on St. Helena.

St. Helena retains the remains of coffee trees planted by the British East India Company (East IndiaCompany) nearly 300 years ago.

The St. Helena coffee garden was once abandoned and enthusiasts began to replant it in the 1990s, but it was a flash in the pan when the main producer went bankrupt and it didn't even help to send the beans to Harrods in London.

Solomon & Company, a listed company, later took over in 2009, injecting new life into Bamboo Hedge.

However, these organic beans are still in short supply.

The company produces 1 to 1.5 metric tons of coffee beans a year, a drop in the bucket compared to global production of about 8.5 million metric tons in 2014. All the company's coffee beans will be exported directly to the UK before baking.

This precious coffee bean is loved by many independent coffee roasters and dealers in the European Union, Russia, Japan, the United States, South Korea and China.
