We've all proven to Starbucks that we'll spend $4 on a cup of coffee.  So it's only natural for them to keep pushing to see how high we'll go.  Is there a limit?  This could test it.   Starbucks just released their most expensive cup of coffee yet.  It's called the Costa Rican Finca Palmilera, and it's made from a rare coffee bean called Geisha.  They're selling it for $6 for a Tall, and $7 for a Grande.  Seven bucks!  Before this, their most expensive coffee was $4.50.

For now, they're only selling this at some stores in Oregon and Washington, but they're planning to take it nationwide early next year.

Apparently, coffee nerds, I guess there's such a thing? say it's TOTALLY WORTH IT.
