Interestingly, in the last few years New Zealand has had it's first commercial coffee grower set up right near the top.

It's definitely specialty and is very expensive ($55NZD for 180g - which is $305NZD per KG or $188USD per KG or $85USD per lb).

But the fact they can grow it here at all is a sign of things changing.
