Businessweek reports that the biggest consumer of coffee is Finland. Their per capita annual consumption is 608.2 Liters. That is 2568 cups. A cup is 8 ounces. Unless they usually drink their coffee black that leaves no room for cream. So if they are like most people their consumption is more like eight cups per day. Wow!
Americans are in 16th place at a mere 105.9 Liters per capita. This equals just 447 cups. That is a mere 1.25 cups per person per day. I am drinking someone else’s share at two cups a day. Canadian consumption is 125.6 Liters. Toronto has a Starbucks or Tim Hortons on every other corner in the downtown area. No wonder that city is bustling with energy. I can walk to Starbucks but there are a total of ten stores within three miles of my home plus many independent coffee shops. OK, I drink my coffee at home.
