Personally, I can't stand instant coffee and treat it as some kind of insult to decent coffee (I always choose tea in preference to instant coffee). As others have said, Kopi Luwak should be shunned for the animal cruelty involved as well as for the the excessive hype about it. I am a fan of quite a few Asian coffee beans, however. Monsooned Malabar is one of my faves as well as some strong flavoured Indonesian beans. I really enjoyed some Thai beans that I bought in a small batch although the flavour was definitely funky and not to all tastes.
