Every Papercup Coffee 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 Papercup Coffee 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 Papercup Coffee coffee we track, across whole bean, on one honest unit.

Balanced everyday coffee that suits almost everyone, at an unremarkable price.

What Papercup Coffee coffee costs
The range runs from 68p to £2.25 a cup across 11 products. That is a 3.3× spread inside a single brand, which is why "is Papercup Coffee expensive" is the wrong question; the right one is which bag you pick. The cheapest is Ritual Espresso in the 1kg, and the dearest is Fruit Salad in the 200g.
| Product | Format | Size | Per cup | Per kg |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Ritual Espresso | whole bean | 1kg | £0.68 | £38.00 |
| University of Glasgow | whole bean | 1kg | £0.72 | £40.00 |
| Naecaf | whole bean | 1kg | £0.72 | £40.00 |
| Sweeter Things | whole bean | 1kg | £0.75 | £41.50 |
| Honey | whole bean | 1kg | £0.80 | £44.50 |
| Tutti Frutti | whole bean | 1kg | £0.85 | £47.00 |
| Sour Cherry | whole bean | 1kg | £0.97 | £54.00 |
| Naecaf | whole bean | 1kg | £1.11 | £61.50 |

| Passionfruit | whole bean | 200g | £2.07 | £115.00 |
| Fruit Salad | whole bean | 200g | £2.25 | £125.00 |
Bags themselves run £23.00 to £85.00. Ignore that column. A bigger bag costs more and almost always costs less per cup, which is the only number that follows you home.
The one to buy
Ritual Espresso is the cheapest thing Papercup Coffee sells, at 68p a cup. We cannot yet set that against a market average for whole bean coffee, so treat it as the floor of the range rather than a verdict on value.

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.
