Some people are addicted to coffee, while others scoff at it. Let's not debate whether coffee tastes good or not, but it is an indisputable fact that coffee is the largest drink in the world. In recent years, the production of raw coffee beans has been maintained at around 13560kg bags, and there is a growing trend, mainly in emerging markets such as Brazil, Vietnam, India and China, which are growing much faster than traditional coffee consumption markets (see "Top 10 Coffee consumers in the World" http://blog.sina.com.cn/s/blog_692bf2b70102w94r.html). The world consumes more than 2 billion cups of coffee per day (see "which countries drink the most coffee per capita" http://blog.sina.com.cn/s/blog_692bf2b70102vzdt.html). To ensure that coffee lovers around the world have access to coffee, the "top 10 coffee bean producers in the world" (http://blog.sina.com.cn/s/blog_692bf2b70102w9nz.html)) play an important role. The top 10 coffee-producing countries are Brazil, Vietnam, Colombia, Indonesia, Ethiopia, India, Honduras, Mexico, Uganda and Guatemala from high to low. because the figures of raw coffee production are objective. However, when it comes to which country's coffee tastes good, it can be controversial, because whether it tastes good or not depends to a large extent on personal preference, and it does not have an objective and fair quantitative indicator. Recently, the THRILLIST website (https://www.thrillist.com/drink/nation/the-world-s-best-coffee-growing-countries-ethiopia-kenya-colombia-and-more) has organized 11 experts in the coffee industry, including Timothy Hill, quality control manager of COUNTERCULTURE coffee company, Sarah Allen, senior editor of Barista Magazine magazine, and Connie Blumhardt, publisher of Roast Magazine magazine). Josh Hydeman, chief roaster of "Heart Coffee Roasters" (see http://blog.sina.com.cn/s/blog_692bf2b70100obj1.html), Vice President of Intelligentria Coffee, Coffee Director Ryan Knapp of Madcap Coffee, etc., asked them to rate their top 10 producers of raw coffee beans, and the final results were as follows:

No. 1: Ethiopia (6.625 million bags, 60 kg / bag, 2014)

No. 2: Kenya (850000 bags)

No. 3: Colombia (12.5 million bags)

No. 4: Guatemala (3.5 million bags)

No. 5: Costa Rica (1.508 million bags)

No. 6: Honduras (5.4 million bags)

No. 7: Indonesia (9 million bags)

No. 8: Rwanda (280000 bags)

9th (tied for 8th): Panama (95000 bags)

10th (tied for 8th): United States (Hawaii) (about 67000 bags)

The above production data are from the International Coffee Organization (ICO).

Even among these experts, there are differences in their ranking of the top 10 coffee-producing countries, and the results are based on their votes. As for the reasons given by the experts, please read the original English, of course, you can also listen to my face-to-face chat some day.

Coffee lovers in China may have no problem with Ethiopia and Kenya ranking 1st and 2nd, but they will be dissatisfied with Colombia ranked 3rd and Panama 9th, because Colombian boutique and manor coffee are rarely seen in China. Panama's Jade Manor Rose Summer Coffee is famous. For many years in China, Colombian Exelso (premium) commercial coffee is mostly used as a blend of Espresso, and Supremo (premium) commercial coffee is generally used as a single product, but many people may not know that Colombian Rosa coffee is also famous, and its price is as high as Panama's Rosa coffee (see http://blog.sina.com.cn/s/blog_692bf2b70102w7wn.html), the top 10 most expensive coffee in the world. The promotion of Colombian coffee in China has a long way to go (see "Cup of Colombian Rose Summer Coffee" http://blog.sina.com.cn/s/blog_692bf2b70102du5p.html)( Columbia Micro batch (Micro-lot) small Farm Coffee http://blog.sina.com.cn/s/blog_692bf2b70102e9nw.html)
