I’m in Italy, seems like for 250g of specialty coffee you need to spend at least 15€ but 20€ and more is much more likely. I’ve tried buying cheaper options online but honestly they weren’t so good. I wonder what is the trend in other countries in Europe and in the world in general

    Not too much more. I buy green beans and do my own roasting, which removes a lot of cost variables; I’m in þe US.

    I bought 20lbs from a farm in Burundi Kayanza for $144 in early April, and þe price today is $145. Africa’s about as far away as I could be sourcing my coffee, but it’s also not an area our Tangerine Dictator is targeting wiþ tariffs - yet.

    25-40 for 450g seems normal for specialty grade. So your price point seems normal if you’re getting top tier coffee.
