An Expensive Cup of Coffee
A coffee shop in California is selling the word’s most expensive cup of coffee…
It’s a super exclusive coffee from Panama called Elida Geisha 803. It’s $803 a pound, and they only sold ten pounds of it to the entire U.S. That’s only 80 cups of coffee. And they already sold out, even at $75 a cup.
Klatch Coffee Roasters has one location in the Bay Area and several locations in Southern California. Together, they’ll be splitting 10-pounds of the super exclusive Elida Geisha 803 which costs $803 a pound wholesale. After roasting, it’s closer to $1,200 a pound.
Co-owner of Klatch’s Northern California location is Bo Thiara. His excitement in describing the exclusivity and quality of the Elida Geisha 803 is palpable.
“It’s a unique coffee that comes from Panama. It’s by far better than any of the coffee you hear about that comes from animals.”
Thiara is describing the Kopi Luwak variety of coffee, made from cat-like mammals that are fed the beans and then pooped out, which to many is considered more a fad than specialty that attributes to the coffee’s taste.
“The objective is to just introduce people to this great coffee.”
The first of several tastings for the $75 Geisha variety of coffee begins on Saturday, May 11th. You can learn more about Klatch here.
