Coffee isn\u2019t just a beverage; it\u2019s a global economic engine and a ritual shared by cultures across every continent.<\/p>\n\n<h2>A Giant of Global Trade<\/h2>\n<p>Coffee is <strong>the second most\u2011consumed beverage on the planet,<\/strong>only behind water. It\u2019s estimated that between 1.6 and 2 billion cups are consumed every day worldwide. (We at Buna would be perfectly happy serving just 0.00001% of that amount.)<\/p>\n\n<p>At an economic level, the impact is astonishing: it is the second most\u2011traded commodity in the world, surpassed only by oil. We\u2019re talking about more than <strong>10 billion kilos traded every year.<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n<h2>Who Produces It and Who Drinks It?<\/h2>\n<p>The geography of coffee is clearly divided between the countries that grow it (near the equator) and those that consume it massively (generally in the Northern Hemisphere).<\/p>\n\n<ul>\n    <li><strong>The Leading Producer:<\/strong> Brazil dominates the market, growing 30.16% of the world\u2019s coffee production. It is followed by Vietnam (primarily producing Robusta), Colombia, Indonesia, Honduras, and Ethiopia.<\/li>\n    <li><strong>The Mecca of Coffee Shops:<\/strong> Italians have an undeniable passion for espresso. It\u2019s no surprise that Italy is the country with the highest density of coffee shops: one establishment for every 600 inhabitants.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n<h3>The Ranking of the Biggest Coffee Drinkers<\/h3>\n<p>Paradoxically, the colder the country, the more coffee its people consume per capita. Here\u2019s the ranking by kilos consumed per person per year:<\/p>\n\n<ol>\n    <li><strong>Finland:<\/strong> 12 kg (the undisputed champions).<\/li>\n    <li><strong>Norway:<\/strong> 9.9 kg.<\/li>\n    <li><strong>Iceland:<\/strong> 9 kg.<\/li>\n    <li><strong>Denmark:<\/strong> 8.7 kg.<\/li>\n    <li><strong>Netherlands:<\/strong> 8.4 kg.<\/li>\n    <li><strong>Sweden:<\/strong> 8.2 kg.<\/li>\n    <li><strong>Switzerland:<\/strong> 7.9 kg.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>And what about us? Spain sits right in the middle of the ranking (19th place), with a not\u2011at\u2011all negligible consumption of <strong>4.5 kilos per person per year.<\/strong>.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Si crees que eres la \u00fanica persona que no puede funcionar sin su dosis de cafe\u00edna matutina, los datos globales te dar\u00e1n la raz\u00f3n.
