Every Speciality 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 Speciality 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 Speciality Coffee coffee we track on one honest unit.

What Speciality Coffee coffee costs
The range runs from 58p to £1.04 a cup across 16 products. That is a 1.8× spread inside a single brand, which is why "is Speciality Coffee expensive" is the wrong question; the right one is which bag you pick. The cheapest is Brazil: Andrea Costa Red Catuai Natural in the 1kg, and the dearest is Guatemala: Francisco Morales La Esperanza Natural in the 1kg.

Bags themselves run £32.00 to £58.00. 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
Brazil: Andrea Costa Red Catuai Natural is the cheapest thing Speciality Coffee sells, at 58p a cup. We cannot yet set that against a market average, because the range is not yet classified by format, 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.
