The “most expensive cup of coffee in the world” costs a thousand dollars, but includes a work by the artist “Coolman Coffeedan” and a pound of “cider”, a unique coffee variety, and will be served in Miami during Art Week, early December, when the city becomes an art gallery.
“Sidra” is a mutation of the Bourbon variety, one of the most appreciated in the world, and it was believed to be lost until it was discovered in Ecuador, the Miami Herald reported .
SuperLost Coffee buys directly from coffee farms, not in the large raw material markets such as New York , to guarantee product traceability, but also pays its suppliers better by following what is known as “fair trade”.
To illustrate the value of “cider”, Roa explains that for a pound (430 grams) of normal coffee you pay a dollar, an amount that if applied to the “fair market”, rises to 1.70 dollars, while the price of a pound of the variety found in Ecuador is $ 16.
SuperLost Coffee has wanted to raise the stakes in the presentation in society of “cider”, which will take place on December 1 at the Bagel Club in Wynwood, the artistic neighborhood of Miami, and will be accompanied by an artistic exhibition organized by The Art Plug and the collective creation of a mura
That day the “most expensive cup of coffee in the world” will be served to those who are willing to pay the required thousand dollars in containers made with fragments of an original work by Danny Casale, known as “Coolman Coffeedan”, who is based in Los Angels and is known for his ironic and surreal animation
Casale, with more than 10 million followers on social networks, specially designed the space for the exhibition called “Ur Special Coffee”.s.l.
