How much to suck on the spent grounds?
Asking for a friend.

As a conservative, I don't what people spend their money on, but in the back of my mind I think some people have more money than brains.

I guess if you want to be able to report, breathlessly, to your Cocktail Party-going friends on something new and exciting, this is something to do.

Kudos to the Grower for a great marketing triumph.

Ain't no cuppa coffee worth $55. Tells me something about you if you're spending your money that way.

As in, "A _____ and his money..."

The leader in über coffee was the civet poop stuff. Think this one has them beat...

David Baker বলেছেন...

At 2:59 in the morning, it just seemed worth it.

The perfect cup of coffee for those hard working miners heading off to a long day at the golden plume asteroid mines.

The 909 hits sophistication!

Oddly enough one of their locations was my local coffee shop for many years. Been there a lot. Nice, casual, entirely unpretentious place next door to a Boot Barn. Great place to hang out that has also won awards for roasting.

Time to sell off equities.

Bill Peschel বলেছেন...

I hate seeing my cynicism confirmed, but it's their money.

Hint for the 909: You don't have to buy the cup to brag about being there. Lying's free and you get the same benefit.

Ralph L বলেছেন...

Timed? So everyone drinks simultaneously--or in succession?

Peachy বলেছেন...

I'm verklempt.

Big Mike বলেছেন...

I suppose he'd be pissed if I asked where the sugar and creamer are?

Just joking! I drink mine black and thick -- a product of 2:00 AM debugging sessions in the days of my youth.

It would almost be worth the $55 to buy a cup of the stuff and then do a Danny Thomas spit-take.

pacwest বলেছেন...

Do I get a free pet rock with that?

Patrick বলেছেন...

It's like very expensive scotch. You don't drink it because it tastes so good, you drink it so you can talk about it

Jaq বলেছেন...

I paid $10 for a cup of very average coffee just outside of Heathrow Airport, when you allowed for the exchange rate, so this doesn't seem that far out of line for a price. Since I can't actually taste it, I can't tell you.

I read that advice in the book How to Talk about Books You Haven't Read.

Excellent read!!

Like Paddy O, I've been to one of Klatch's locations. Great change from S-Bucks - makes you want to sit a spell and tell tall tales. $55 is pretty steep, but I suppose there are some who can tell you it's worth it.

I agree that people are free to spend their own money however they choose. I also remember hearing Robin Williams say, "Cocaine is God's way of telling you you are making too much money."

So the lexicon of wine-snobbery has migrated to coffee. I should have known.

Great coffee, no pretense

It's High-Falutin'. Almond Milk and Stevia.
