Wake Up and Coffee
-
Question for you coffee guys.
So today I was at the grocery and I was picking up some coffee, I generally buy Cuvée Coffee which is roasted here in Austin and pretty solid for daily drinking. Not crazy expensive, about 12-15 dollars a pound.
Well I saw some Jamaican Blue Mountain coffee from another roaster and I was stunned at the price. 69 dollars for a pound! Is is really that great or is it purely a case of supply and demand? I've heard of the coffee before and have seen some videos discussing it and how it's cultivated, but I never knew it was so expensive.
Just curious if I'm totally off base or what.

It's like any other hobby you can go as deep as you want

Hi @Anesthetist
What a beautiful mug. Is it affordable and where to buy? -
They vary in price according to style, color, condition, and marking. I paid about $30 for mine since it has an early stamp, is near mint, and had some beautiful coloring. As I understand it, a lot of these mugs were used in restaurants and have lost their luster or are pitted due to machine washing.
I bought mine at a neighborhood store but just bought two more small mugs on ebay for much less although they are a less desirable pattern. I would start there and see what you like. What's funny is that when I was a kid I used to see these mugs for 25¢ at garage sales. If only I knew back then…..
