Coffee: Who grows, drinks and pays the most?

for me the best coffee blend is a mix of jacob's wonderbar and silken splendor beans from philz. always buy them as full beans and grind them yourself using a fine grinder. and brew each cup yourself using turkish drip and flask or a filter and can kopitiam style. add a few drops of full cream (not that half and half shit) and viola! but if you prefer them to brew and serve you, you have a choice of blends from light, medium to dark roast.

Any Ang Moh styled or Ang Moh branded coffee are rejected by me. The only use of these liquid is to wash my dick after I fucked some assholes. Warm StarFUCK coffee feels good on my dick after a good fuck.
 
Coffee should be like wine. With vintage and different estate grown / terroir imparting different taste to the coffee after roasting and “aged”.

Fuck the middlemen who take obscene margin from suppressing the growers. We should be able to order direct from growers. Perhaps kopi luwat is nothing but a myth.
 
5. Most popular coffee drinks
Coffee connoisseurs might pride themselves on their ability to drink the strong stuff, but the most popular coffee drinks purchased in the UK are milk-based.

Lattes were the most popular coffee product purchased in the UK, with more than 930 million sold in the year to 25 February 2018. Cappuccinos followed at 800 million, according to market researcher Kantar Worldpanel.

Flat whites are growing in popularity, with spend on the smooth coffee drinks increasing by 56% from February 2017 to 2018.

In total, people spent £6.3bn ($8.97bn) on coffee in the year to 25 February 2018.

Dwarfing the spend on tea in the UK in 2017 at just £1.5bn ($2.1bn), it seems that coffee culture is here to stay.
 
Health benefits and risks of drinking coffee
Last updated Thu 14 December 2017 By Joseph Nordqvist

  1. Benefits
  2. Nutrition
  3. Risks
A cup of coffee in the morning may provide more than just an energy boost.
Health benefits, say some researchers, may range from helping prevent diabetes to lowering the risk of liver disease.

With over 400 billion cups of coffee thought to be consumed every year, coffee is one of the world's most popular drinks. But is it really healthful, or are there also risks?

Benefits
The potential health benefits associated with drinking coffee include protecting against type 2 diabetes, Parkinson's disease, liver disease, liver cancer, and promoting a healthy heart.3

1) Coffee and diabetes

Coffee may help protect against type 2 diabetes. Researchers at UCLA identified that drinking coffee increases plasma levels of the protein sex hormone-binding globulin (SHBG). SHBG controls the biological activity of the body's sex hormones (testosterone and estrogen) which play a role in the development of type 2 diabetes.4

Dr. Simin Liu, one of the authors of the study, said that an "inverse association" exists between coffee consumption and risk for type 2 diabetes.

Increased coffee consumption may reduce risk of type 2 diabetes - the Harvard School of Public Health (HSPH) researchers gathered data from three studies. In these studies, the diets of the participants were evaluated using questionnaires every 4 years, with participants who reported having type 2 diabetes filling out additional questionnaires. In total, 7,269 study participants had type 2 diabetes.

The researchers found that the participants who increased their coffee intake by more than one cup a day (on average, an increase of 1.69 cups per day) over a 4-year period had an 11% lower type 2 diabetes risk over the subsequent 4 years, compared with people who did not change their intake.
 
2) Coffee and Parkinson's disease
Researchers in the U.S. carried out a study that assessed the link between coffee consumption and Parkinson's disease risk. The authors of the study concluded that "higher coffee and caffeine intake is associated with a significantly lower incidence of Parkinson's disease".5

In addition, caffeine in coffee may help control movement in people suffering from Parkinson's, according to a study conducted at the Research Institute of the McGill University Health Centre (RI MUHC) that was published in the journal Neurology.6

3) Coffee and liver cancer
Italian researchers found that coffee consumption lowers the risk of liver cancer by about 40%. In addition, some of the results suggest that if you drink three cups a day, the risks are reduced by more than 50%.7

The lead author of the study, Dr. Carlo La Vecchia, from Milan's Istituto di Ricerche Farmacologiche Mario Negri, said "our research confirms past claims that coffee is good for your health and particularly the liver."
 
Nutrition
Regular black coffee (without milk or cream) has a very low calorie count. A typical cup of black coffee only contains around 2 calories.

However, if you add sugar and milk, the calorie count can shoot up.

Antioxidants
Coffee is the number one source of antioxidants in the U.S., according to researchers at the University of Scranton.

Joe Vinson, Ph.D., lead author of the study, said that "Americans get more of their antioxidants from coffee than any other dietary source. Nothing else comes close."2

The authors of the study emphasize moderation, stating that only one or two cups a day appear to be beneficial.

Caffeinated and decaffeinated versions provided nearly the same levels of antioxidants.

Several studies have linked regular caffeine intake to extra heartbeats - a common occurrence that can nevertheless lead to heart problems, stroke and death in rare cases. However, a study

looking at long-term caffeine consumption found that regular caffeine consumption is not linked to extra heartbeats.

Coffee: Is it helpful or harmful?
Drinking too much coffee can result in some very unpleasant adverse effects. According to a study by researchers at the University of Oklahoma, "caffeine can cause anxiety symptoms in normal individuals, especially in vulnerable patients, like those with pre-existing anxiety disorders."13

In addition, "caffeine use is also associated with symptoms of depression due to either a self-medication theory, or a theory that caffeine itself causes changes in mood."

Women who plan on becoming pregnant should be cautious. Researchers from the University of Nevada School of Medicine reported in the British Journal of Pharmacology that regular coffee may reduce a woman's chances of becoming pregnant.14
Medical News Today examined the positive and negative effects of drinking coffee in an article in July 2012, Drinking Coffee: More Good Than Harm?.

Other possible risks include:

In one study, researchers detected the presence of mycotoxins in commercial coffee samples, leading to concerns about potential public health risks
