Coffee Facts

Do you know that…

Coffee trees need a warm climate to grow. All major coffee-producing regions are near the equator and offer an ideal combination of rainfall, humidity, sunshine and rich soil.

A coffee tree needs five years to mature and produce its first crop. On average, a mature tree will produce between one to two pounds of green coffee beans every year.
It takes about 10,000 beans to make one pound of coffee and close to 100 beans to make one cup.
