Coffee has gone up everywhere over the last couple of years, to the point where a decent cup of coffee in Perth seems to average about $5.50 to $6.

Are there any holdouts left where you can get a good cup for under $5?

There was https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2023-05-14/coffee-shortage-drives-up-cost-of-even-the-cheapest-cup (top result of Google query after:2023-1-1 coffee beans shortage)

Got no way to verify the ground realities.

Looked similar to chilli shortage reported by SriRacha https://www.google.com/search?q=after%3A2023-1-1+chilli+shortage+sriracha

For all we know, could be another price jacking and/or shrinkflation
