Every Butterworth and Son coffee we track, priced per cup, and which bag is actually the cheap one.
Coffee is sold by the bag and drunk by the cup, and the two almost never rank in the same order. A Butterworth and Son bag that looks dear on the shelf can turn out to be the cheapest thing here once you divide it out, and the one that looks like a bargain often is not. So here is every Butterworth and Son coffee we track, across whole bean and instant, on one honest unit.
The quick version
Delicate and fruit-forward rather than strong, and it undercuts the average.

What Butterworth and Son coffee costs
The range runs from 13p to £1.08 a cup across 28 products. That is a 8.3× spread inside a single brand, which is why "is Butterworth and Son expensive" is the wrong question; the right one is which bag you pick. The cheapest is Colombia Aztec Gold® in the 1kg, and the dearest is Mexico in the 250g.

How to pay less for it
- Read the per-cup column, not the shelf price. They order differently more often than not.
- Buy the biggest bag you will finish in about six weeks. Pack size moves the per-kilo price further than anything else on this page.
- Check whether the same coffee turns up in a larger bag further down the range. It often does, at a lower rate.
- Check again before you reorder. Whoever was cheapest last month frequently is not.
