COFFEE COSTS

-

Most coffee drinkers have a sense of how pricey, or not, a Starbucks latte seems. But how extravagan­t is that cup of coffee in other countries? Consumer research group ValuePengu­in took the price of a small Starbucks latte in 39 countries and then adjusted it to reflect the cost of other goods and services there. In those priciest of countries, a latte can be seen as a measure of how relatively inexpensiv­e many other goods and services are there.

Here are the countries where a tall (small) Starbucks latte is most costly or extravagan­t. All the findings are at https:// www.valuepengu­in.com/ countries-where-buyingstar­bucks-most-and-leastextra­vagant.
