We've paid over $20/Lb for coffee from Hi and as little as $5/Lb for beans with no idea where they came from. They were both similar. The next time the wife goes to HI she will bring back macadamias but no coffee. The difference is not worth the price to us. Just find something you like. Next year the beans will be slightly different or the roast will be different.
We went into a restaurant in VA for breakfast and had the best cup of coffee ever. They sold us most of what the had in stock. We got them to give us the name of the roaster and ordered direct. The first order was excellent and the next couple were just average. We just look for a good cup now. Find a brand that you like that cost what you wish to pay.
I prefer to grind my own beans as I find that gives me better results.
I dunno, Meerkat.
I drink Folgers.
