Dubai Sets World Record with the Most Expensive Cup of Coffee
Dubai – 15 September 2025 – (Qahwa World) – Dubai has once again captured the spotlight in the global coffee scene. Roasters Specialty Coffee House has officially entered the Guinness World Records for serving the most expensive cup of coffee in the world.
The achievement was registered on 13 September 2025 in Dubai, United Arab Emirates, where Guinness World Records representatives confirmed the milestone. The exceptional cup, brewed using the V60 method, was sold at a record-breaking price, setting a new benchmark for luxury coffee experiences worldwide.
During the official announcement, the Guinness adjudicator declared: “Today is the year for the record of the most expensive coffee cup. This record was achieved by Roaster’s Specialty Coffee House. Congratulations, you are officially amazing.”
This milestone follows a string of bold moves that have placed Dubai’s coffee culture in the global spotlight. Just last month, the famed “Best of Panama 2025” auction made history when washed Geisha coffee from Hacienda La Esmeralda fetched an unprecedented $30,204 per kilogram. Yet the bigger surprise was the buyer: a Dubai-based startup, only one week old at the time, that stunned the industry by purchasing the entire 20-kilogram lot for $604,000.
That dramatic moment shook markets and ignited debates among experts, investors, and coffee leaders worldwide. With this new Guinness World Record, Dubai has once again proven its unique ability to merge tradition with innovation and luxury, cementing its place as a rising force in the global coffee industry.
