Markets In Everything: High-End $12 Cup of Coffee

"It is a higher-end coffee, and you have to take a lot of time developing and processing it," said Steve Holt, vice president of Ninety Plus Coffee, the company distributing the beans for the $12 cup of coffee. "Once the coffee is harvested, it is dried on a raised African drying bed -- the actual coffee cherries never sit on the ground."

Colleen Duhamel, a coffee buyer and barista at
Cafe Grumpy said the Nekisse beans, which are roasted on site, yield a far more complex coffee that should only be taken black.
