Which are the top coffee producing countries?

by Ruby
(Singapore)


QUESTION:

I want to know the top ten coffee producing countries in the world, and some information about them.

ANSWER:

Different groups and organizations have slightly different "top 10" lists. But here's a pretty accurate list for you.

Brazil

Colombia

Costa Rica

Indonesia

Vietnam

Mexico

Ethiopia

India

Guatemala

Guinea

Among these, the two really, really big producers are Brazil and Colombia.

You'll find some additional information on some of these countries and their coffees on our Gourmet Coffee page.

Just scroll down to the end of that page and you'll find links to information on Brazil, Colombia, Ethiopia, Kenya and Sumatra.

Ethiopian coffee is the best coffee. They have different coffees acording how they grow it and which part of the country grow. If you try HARARE coffee that comes from estern part of the country is the best of all organic cooffee.

 the arabica bean
by: Anonymous

Is this bean (Arabica) really from the country of Colombia?

Editor's Note: Arabica is a description of the type of bean, not the country of origin. Arabica coffee beans can be grown in any coffee-growing country or region.

India is the only coffee producing country in the world whose coffee is grown "in the shade". This makes is "less bitter" and "more aromatic". Try it & you'll like it as it is the Best Coffee In The World....period.

Costarican Coffee might be third in the list but it sure does beat brazilian and colombian coffee in taste. The best quality comes from the best elements.
