    We have just got back from Vietnam and had our package of Weasel Coffee confiscated at quarantine when we declared it on arrival in Australia. Just thought I would let people know as this is a recent change that occurred on 15 Jan 2010 and isn't on the AQIS factsheets they only mention raw or green coffee beans.

    Heres the details:

    Hi sanpedro,

    Thanks for the report -- what a bummer -- that coffee is superb.
