Limited & Premium Coffees

Bags above $0.32/g (about $80+ for 250g). Competition lots, micro-region geshas, anaerobic ferment experiments, single-day harvests roasters only see a few kilos of per year.

For the special-occasion bag, brewed slowly on the cleanest setup you have. For tasting what specialty coffee is capable of at the high end. Not for the everyday grinder.

Genuinely scarce. A $200 100g bag of Panama Gesha isn't priced that way because the roaster is greedy — it's because the producer harvested fewer than 50 kilos of that lot, and bidders from a dozen countries competed at the green-coffee auction. Information density per cup is high; every brewing variable matters more.

Unified by the price floor (>$0.32/g USD), but profiles diverge wildly. Some are aromatic floral light roasts treated like fine tea. Others are heavily-fermented experimental lots that taste closer to wine than coffee. Roasted dates are usually within the last two-three weeks because these lots move fast.
