Starbucks introduces $10 cups of coffee at Reserve Bars

Posted by | December 7, 2016 07:07 | Filed under: Top Stories

It’s an attempt to court Millennials.

“Starbucks is the millennials’ parents’ coffee house and Starbucks is acutely aware of that,” said Ric Rhinehart, executive director of the Specialty Coffee Association of America.

Starbucks’ Reserve projects are “a reminder that they did this first and they do this best,” said AB Bernstein analyst Sara Senatore.

The company already has added Reserve bars to a handful of Starbucks shops in major cities including New York.

Reuters visited one such cafe on Manhattan’s Upper East Side, which offered $10 cups of coffee made in glass siphons, $10 “flights” of Reserve brews and nitro cold brew via a separate Reserve menu…

Reserve stores will exclusively sell and serve exotic, small-lot coffees that can cost $50 per 8-ounce bag. Executives expect customers to stay longer and spend more, driving twice the financial returns of typical Starbucks stores, which have average unit sales of about $1.6 million annually.
