Ever wondered which country has the best coffee? Spoiler alert: it isn’t New York City. There are only 80 countries in the world that have the optimal climate for coffee beans to thrive. These are the countries where said beans thrive the most.
Columbia
Columbia supplies 15% of the world’s coffee, namely high-quality Arabica. That’s the good stuff that you can buy in Starbucks. They also produce Supremo, which is the highest quality coffee you can come by and is generally quite difficult to come by.
Ethiopia
Ethiopia is known for “Harrar” coffee which is grown in the highlands. It has a fruity flavor and is often considered to taste like wine. Some of the best coffee varieties are grown in Ethiopia.
Guatemala
Guatemalan coffee is also considered by experts to be some of the best coffee in the world. This is because it grows in mountainous areas where it develops a more intense flavor.
Jamaica
Coffee that comes out of Jamaica is considered to be some of the finest in the world. It is very expensive and has a specific aroma which is unlike any other variation. You can expect to pay anything from $60 for a bag of Jamaican grain.
