Hands down, best I've had was at the Doka Estate coffee plantation in San Jose, Costa Rica, right near Paos Volcano National Park. We did their tour, and part of the tour was a taste test of 4 or 5 different varieties. i don't remember what it was called, but I don't remember ever having a better cup than one of those.

I always thought that Kopi Luwak was the most expensive coffee in NY (or the states) they go for $30 to $100 per cup (I tried it in Bali a few times, delicious & kosher, according to talmud)

I thought it tasted like coffee. On that note, I have plenty of it by me if anyone wants to try the crappiest cup of coffee.
