Top 6 Unusual Gifts for Coffee Lovers

by Sean Paajanen

Have a coffee-lover in your family, and want to get them a gift that's out of the ordinary? I've collected the neatest coffee-related items out there to give you some ideas.

1. A Barista Action Figure

Hey, since some people can't function without their morning espresso, a barista can really be a hero.

2. Java Logs

Especially for the environmentally conscious coffee-drinker. Java logs are man-made fireplace logs that are made up mostly of coffee grounds.

3. Streetbeads Coffee Bean Jewelry

What better way to declare your love of coffee to the world? Beaded necklaces and other jewelry made with beads and coffee beans, from the Phillipines.

4. Just Coffee Art

It's hard to believe that these amazing paintings are done entirely in coffee. Why do they paint with coffee? You'll have to visit their website to find the answer to that question.

5. A Real, Live Coffee Tree

An ideal gift for any coffee-lover who also has a green thumb. These plants will actually bloom and produce coffee cherries, given the right growing conditions (they do well indoors).

6. Sample of Kopi Luwak Coffee

Surprise someone with a gift box of the rarest coffee there is. It's also the strangest in my opinion. Kopi Luwak coffee beans have actually been eaten by a small animal before being collected and roasted.
