Elephant poop coffee goes viral for $13 for an espresso.
According to foreign media reports, after Kopi Luwak, drinking elephant shit coffee has become a new fashion. Black ivory coffee developer Blake, 44, said it takes 17 hours for an elephant to eat coffee beans. In the process, the elephant's stomach acid will break down the bitterness of the coffee beans. Blake said that elephants need to eat 33 kilograms of coffee beans to produce one kilogram of coffee, and because elephants defecate from time to time when bathing in the river, many coffee beans are "lost."
But because of its rarity, elephant shit coffee costs $1880 per kilogram, or $13 per cup of espresso. 8% of the proceeds from its sales will be donated back to partner conservation organizations. Families of elephant trainers who pick coffee beans from elephant droppings and wash them and dry them will also be paid. At present, this precious elephant shit coffee is only sold in upscale hotels in Asian markets such as Thailand, Singapore and Hong Kong. But soon, the product will also reach high-end venues in Paris, Zurich, Copenhagen and Moscow.

Revealing the reason why elephant shit coffee tastes so good
Elephant coffee is actually coffee beans that are digested and excreted in stool after being swallowed by elephants. Studies have shown that enzymes in the elephant's digestive system can digest the protein of coffee beans, according to the Anattara Hotel in Thailand. Because protein makes coffee bitter, the less protein, the less bitter coffee and the smoother taste, which is why elephant shit coffee tastes good.
