Just like how Magic made its way to Indonesia through coffee drinkers, Tiger Bomb and Mont Blanc coffee made their ways to the archipelago in a similar fashion, without recipe leaks or breach of confidentiality. People just reverse engineered the coffee and figured it out themselves.
Under Indonesian law, duplication through discovery makes it next to impossible to seek for damages or redress because there doesn’t appear to have been any violation of trade secret.
