A Coffee Taster Had His Tongue Insured for £10 Million

Gennaro Pelliccia doesn’t just appreciate a good cup of coffee—he’s a professional coffee taster who works for England’s Costa Coffee company. His discerning tongue is so key to his job that he was able to insure it for a whopping £10 million ($11.3 million) with Lloyd’s of London. “My tongue and my ability to perceive different aromas are very important to my work,” Pelliccia told the Lifestyle Inquirer.
