Dubai Café Julith Launches World’s Most Expensive Coffee at $1,000 a Cup: In a city renowned for luxury and world records, a Dubai café has raised the bar yet again. Julith Café has unveiled the world’s most expensive coffee, priced at nearly $1,000 (3,600 dirhams) per cup.
The coffee, brewed from ultra-rare Panamanian “Nido 7 Geisha” beans, is making headlines worldwide. Julith purchased the beans at auction for about $600,000 (2.2 million dirhams) — the highest price ever paid for coffee beans.
Transitioning from bean to brew, each cup offers a refined bouquet of floral and fruity notes, including hints of jasmine, orange, and apricot. The café plans to serve around 400 cups starting this Saturday, giving coffee connoisseurs an unparalleled experience in luxury indulgence.
This opulent launch follows Dubai’s recent Guinness World Record for the previous most expensive coffee, priced at 2,500 dirhams per cup. Within just a month, Julith has shattered that record, reaffirming the city’s global reputation for excess and innovation.
While residents described the price as “shocking but typical of Dubai,” many are eager to see how the brew compares to other premium blends. True to Dubai’s exclusivity, Julith confirmed that the Nido 7 Geisha beans will not be shared — except for a small portion reserved for Dubai’s ruling family.
From gold-plated desserts to diamond-infused dining, Dubai’s culinary scene continues to redefine luxury. With this latest launch, Julith Café has brewed not just a cup of coffee — but a global sensation.
