This old gal would never pay that for a cup of coffee.We drink a lot of coffee and I like half and half in it,I usually buy Folger's Classic Roast or Colombian.I agree Mike,some people have too much money.
May 15, 2019 at 8:04 pm #16088My husband would say that some people have more money than brains.
I like my coffee, but I'm perfectly happy with Peet's French roast, a bag of which lasts me for several weeks.
May 15, 2019 at 8:53 pm #16093Sams Club has a bottle of scotch for $1200, which works out to $48-$75 a shot (depending on whether you pour a one ounce shot or a 1.5 ounce shot.)
But I'm neither a coffee drinker nor a scotch drinker, so the subtleties of either would be totally lost on me. I can appreciate a good cup of tea but I wouldn't pay the crazy prices that the high end teas get, either.
May 16, 2019 at 12:43 am #16097I heard about that on the late morning news. Since it's not decaf, I'll have to pass.
May 16, 2019 at 9:54 am #16104I wondered if this were the poop coffee beans but apparently it isn't. I love coffee. I've cut way back since I was sick (I'd been off completely) but I drink a couple cups a week. I do not know if I will ever have enough money to pay $75 for a cup of coffee.
Len, if it were decaf, it would likely be MORE expensive as it requires extra labor to take out the caffeine!
May 16, 2019 at 4:14 pm #16111I figured out that I like a dark roast, which is less acidic than a light roast. I've tried the occasional Peet's Christmas and Anniversary coffee, but I keep coming back to the French roast. It's a good roast also for people like me who prefer their coffee without milk or sugar. I use a French Press, make a 14 oz. cup in the morning, and that usually sets me for the day. Sometimes I'll have a smaller cup in the afternoon but more often I have some kind of tea. I always had sugar and milk in the tea, but I've cut the sugar in a 14 oz. cup back to 1/4 tsp. Occasionally I drink green tea--plain without add-ins, and summer brings on the iced tea. I like herbal or decaf teas in the evening.
