Coffee is a brewed beverage with a bitter, acidic flavor prepared from the roasted
seeds of the coffee plant. The beans are found in coffee cherries, which grow on
trees cultivated in over 70 countries, primarily in equatorial Latin America, Southeast
Asia, South Asia and Africa. Green (unroasted) coffee is one of the most traded
agricultural commodities in the world. Coffee can have a stimulating effect on humans
due to its caffeine content. It is one of the most-consumed beverages in the world.
Tea is an aromatic beverage prepared by adding cured leaves of the camellia sinensis
plant to hot water. The term ‘tea’ also refers to the plant itself. After water,
tea is the most widely consumed beverage in the world. It has a cooling, slightly
bitter, astringent flavour which many people enjoy. Consumption of tea (especially
green) is beneficial to health and longevity given its significant antioxidant content.
Consumption of green tea is associated with a lower risk of diseases that cause
functional disability, such as ‘stroke, cognitive impairment, and osteoporosis’
in the elderly. Tea consumption is strongly associated with a calm but alert and
focused, relatively productive mental state in humans. The phrase ‘herbal tea’ usually
refers to infusions of fruit or herbs made without the tea plant, such as rosehip
tea or chamomile tea. Alternative phrases for this are tisane or herbal infusion,
both bearing an implied contrast with ‘tea’ as it is construed here. Our suppliers
offer their products online under the following groupings: coffee, brewing equipment;
herbal infusions and tisanes; tea.
