Sotheby's International Realty: We Love Difference Coffee

Sotheby's International Realty UK on the world record setting coffee house of Amir Gehl.

Sotheby's International Realty UK featured Difference Coffee in July 2019, in a piece titled "We Love | Difference Coffee", published two days after the company set a new world record for the highest price paid for one pound of coffee, at $1,029 per pound.

The article explains coffee's quality pyramid, with specialty grade accounting for just 1% of global production, and follows Amir Gehl's sourcing from single estates in Panama, Jamaica and Guatemala, including a Panama lot scoring 94.66 out of 100, a local record. It introduces master roaster Jonny England, one of only four licensed Q graders in Europe and head judge for the World Barista Championship and World Brewers' Cup, and notes the chefs who serve the coffee, including Anne-Sophie Pic, Guy Savoy and Alain Passard, as well as Mirazur, then newly voted the world's best restaurant.
