Ten Most Popular Quotes about Coffee
"Coffee" comes from the Latin form of the Coffea group. The most familiar of the 25 major species within Coffea are Coffea arabica and Coffea canephora (robusta). The higher the coffee is grown, the better it will taste; one coffee tree yields slightly less than 1 pound of coffee per year. Coffee facts from a 2001 National Coffee Association survey include:
- Fifty-two percent of the adult population of the U.S. over 18 years of age drink coffee every day, representing 107 million daily drinkers.
- Another 28% drink coffee occasionally.
- Coffee drinkers consume on average 3.3 cups of coffee per day.
- Thirty-five percent of coffee drinkers drink their coffee black; while 62% add a sweetener and/or creaming agent.
