Would you ever pay £75 for 100g of coffee beans? Scott and Jools travel to Panama and Bali to decide whether it's all a big marketing scam. Panamanian Geisha coffee regularly breaks auction records, with coffee recently selling for over $1000 per pound. We hop on the line with Rachel Peterson, co-owner of the famous Hacienda La Esmeralda Estate to discover what Geisha coffee is, where it came from and why people are now saying it will soon reach $10,000 per pound! Kopi Luwak are the coffee beans that are eaten and then pooped out by adorable Indonesian civet cats. We get the lowdown on this novelty coffee from Janice Girardi, founder of the Bali Animal Welfare Association. Be warned: the truth is shocking.
