    That is surprising! I bet the local coffee farm is just small, so there is just not a lot of output yet. That will always drive the price up.

      Oh yes they are tiny, and have to cover costs from a developed country price point so no cheap labour. Plus they can only grow coffee part of the year (seasonal). Plus the unique aspect of it and limited availability would mean higher prices.
