You might be wondering why specialty coffee can sometimes seem more expensive than what you’re used to grabbing off the shelf. At Nowhere Coffee Club, we get it—premium coffee isn’t always cheap! But before you dismiss it, let’s break down why it’s worth the investment and how you can enjoy specialty coffee without breaking your budget.

Why Specialty Coffee Costs More

Specialty coffee is carefully sourced, often from small, sustainable farms that focus on quality over quantity. The beans go through rigorous grading, ensuring you’re getting a top-notch product. This level of care comes at a price, but it's one that brings superior flavor, aroma, and traceability you can’t get with regular coffee.

Imagine going to a strawberry patch and only choosing the finest looking strawberries there and skipping over the rotten, moldy, or bug-chewed ones. That's what we do at Nowhere Coffee Club.

Next time you are at the grocery store, choose one of the speckled, slightly green-in-a-bad-way bananas instead of the perfect yellow ones.  That's what non-specialty coffee companies do and you can imagine what disaster you can hide with an over-roast at your favorite corporate coffee company or worse, inside an opaque plastic pod. 

Does it make sense why ours cost more? Because we start with the best and roast from there.
