Almost 80% of the world coffee crop is rated as commodity coffee.

Commodity coffee is used in processed coffee such as instant or decaf coffee. Grocery stores and larger coffee chains have to use commodity beans because the quantities needed are just too large to only source at the highest end of the market.

Many commodity coffees are cheap and get processed with artificial flavors such as caramel, nutmeg, vanilla, chocolate or cinnamon to hide the aroma defects and bitter or sour notes.

We recommend avoiding commodity coffee beans. Life is too short for bad tasting coffee.
