Driven by supply constraints and adverse weather conditions hitting harvests, coffee prices are brewing at all-time highs — doubling over the past year and peaking to their highest in decades in February of 2025.

Now, with US President Donald Trump’s tariffs on the horizon, prices are expected to climb even higher. From beans to packaging and cups, everything could be in for an extra shot of inflation, hiking up costs for suppliers and coffee lovers worldwide.
