What is bat spit coffee and why it is the new craze

Are you a coffee lover, who has tried butter coffee, mushroom coffee and broccoli coffee too? If yes, we have got a new variation that is animal-enhanced has got a smooth flavour. Grown in the rich volcanic soils of central Madagascar’s Itasy province, this coffee is nibbled by bats and interestingly, it is coveted by humans even more. (Image: Reuters)

It’s a coffee variation called Bourbon pointu, which has bat spit in it and gives the beans a uniquely smooth flavour. It’s a recent trend in Madagasca, where people earlier had no interest in growing coffee.
