Elephant Dung Coffee Produces The World's Most Expensive Cup

PHRAO, THAILAND - DECEMBER 8: A member of the Lisu hill tribe picks Thai arabica coffee beans at the Thai High coffee farm on December 8, 2012 in Phrao, northern Thailand. The organic fair trade coffee farm was chosen to help produce the Black Ivory Coffee. The new brand of coffee is produced by harvesting the beans from the dung of a Thai elephant. It takes 15-30 hours for the elephant to digest the beans, then they are plucked later from their dung and washed and roasted. At $1,100 per kilogram or $500 per pound, the cost per cup equals $50, this makes the exotic new brew the world's priciest. It takes 33 kilograms of raw coffee cherries to produce 1 kilo of Black Ivory coffee. (Photo by Paula Bronstein/Getty Images)
