I went to Starbucks for the first time in 2 years and was floored at how much prices had gone up! 460 for the cheapest regular coffee! If they're going to raise prices on top of that, hello Doutour (or ANY other coffee shop / kisaten).

Do people go to Starbucks for cheap coffee?

the two largest coffee producing countries, brazil and vietnam, have lower yields from drought, disease, soil mismanagement and climate change. it’s not going to get better.

Added value to the customer from this? Zero, of course.
