A Day to Celebrate Coffee!

I know, I know, isn't EVERY day Coffee Day?

But October 1st is International Coffee Day - a day for everyone around the world to celebrate and enjoy our favourite beverage.

International Coffee Day was established in 2015 by the International Coffee Organization. And here we are, 10 years later, and some people are still confusing it with the USA’s National Coffee Day which is every September 29th. It is confusing since they are just two days apart!

International Coffee Day is a day to both celebrate coffee and to acknowledge the hardworking farmers who bring our fave elixir to market. Countries that helped to establish International Coffee Day are both coffee drinking (importing) countries like Canada and the USA and coffee producing (exporting) countries.  

How are you celebrating International Coffee Day?

Whether you like your coffee brewed or espresso-based, milky or black, hot or cold, sweetened or natural, decaf, half-caf or full strength, should you celebrate International Coffee Day by putting some delicious coffee in your face right now?

Take a look at this handy flowchart by The Oatmeal and the lovely ilovecoffee blog to help you decide.

Here at Sparkplug Coffee Global HQ, we'll definitely be putting coffee in our face. We’ll make a delicious cup of coffee with our beloved Aeropress to start the day. And we'll use the new Limited Edition coffee, just to make the day extra-special. Then who knows where the day will take us?

However you celebrate it, we hope your International Coffee Day is fabulous! (Thanks to Giphy & the interweb for the Coffee at Tiffany's pic)
