How a Balinese Farmer Built a Coffee Empire from Poop

Description
When she was just a little girl, Ayu Sudana used to fill buckets of Asian palm civet poop in exchange for toys. Today, she’s the proud co-founder of Bali Beans — a plantation, a roastery, a coffee shop and distribution house. For this week’s episode, we’re going to her plantation, in the heart of Bali’s coffee growing region, to try the world’s most expensive coffee for ourselves — Kopi Luwak. Bali Beans is one of the island’s only coffee growers that harvests Kopi Luwak in the wild, which means we’re out in the field looking for poop. Come along! It smells divine!  SHOW NOTES:  Learn more about Ayu Sudana at https://balibeans.com or check her out on Instagram (@ayu.sudana)  Check out GuideGeek, Your New Personal AI Travel Assistant! http://bit.ly/3LKpHTj For more on ‘No Fixed Address’ visit matadornetwork.com/NFApodcast
