The list of top 15 caffeine addicted countries with the highest coffee consumption in the world starts with Brazil. Even though Brazilian culture is often associated with coffee, it’s by far not the world’s largest consumer of the beverage. However, Brazil is one of the world’s largest producers of coffee, mostly Arabica varieties. In 2o16/2017, Brazil is expected to produce 55 million bags of coffee, up by 9.2% on the year. Brazil has been growing coffee since 1727 and at the beginning of the 20th century it was the largest exporter, amassing around 70% of the world’s exports. Coffee export still represents a major part of Brazil’s economy as it accounts for nearly 3% of the country’s exports.
