Only natural fertilizers are used in their crop, and livestock manure is not used as it may contain non-organic substances from concentrated animal feed or veterinary treatments. The coffee is also wet processed using pure spring water descending from the Island's peaks, along the Central Ridge.

8. Hacienda La Esmeralda, Boquete, Panama: $104 (£65) per pound – Esmeralda pride their selves on supplying completely ripe, red fruits, that will only ever be hand picked from the crops. The coffee goes through a vigorous quality assurance procedure as each harvester's production for the day is weighed and inspected for defects or green beans.

9. Kopi Luwak Coffee, Indonesia: $160 (£99) per pound – Kopi Luwak coffee is the rarest gourmet coffee which originates from Indonesian island of Sumatra. The coffee gets its name from little mammals called ‘Luwaks’ which live in trees and eat the red, ripe coffee cherry. They eat the cherrys with the bean intact and it undergoes chemical treatments and fermentations, before finishing its journey through the digestive system. The still-intact beans are collected from the forest floor, and are cleaned, then roasted and ground just like any other coffee. The coffee is second to none, with a rich heavy flavour that contains hints of chocolate and caramel. The price of this coffee is so expensive because of its rarity, but if you are a real coffee lover, who enjoys the finer things in life, then this may be worth a go.
