Madagascar

Todd Carmichael travels to Madagascar where 200 miles and 165 million years of evolution separate this large island from mainland Africa. It's rumored to be a source of high-quality Robusta, a utility-grade strain of coffee largely avoided by coffee aficionados. Todd believes the exception to that rule could be hidden somewhere in Madagascar if he can navigate the country's challenging terrain. Impassable roads and an ancient rickety train can only take Todd so far, and then he must trek by foot through heavy rainforest, bat-infested tunnels and into isolated villages where he hopes he'll find the rare and delicious treasure he is seeking.
