Gather ‘round, coffee lovers, because we need to have a little coffee chat. Nothing dramatic (yet), but we want to keep you in the loop about what’s happening in the coffee world—because, well, it might impact your favorite morning ritual.
Why Are Coffee Prices on the Rise?
If you’ve been paying attention to the coffee industry (or just noticed that your favorite café is charging a little more for that latte), you’re not imagining things. The cost of arabica coffee—the good stuff, the smooth, flavorful beans we all love—has doubled in the last 12 months. 😳
So what’s causing the spike? A perfect storm of factors:
✅ Extreme weather—Brazil, the world’s biggest coffee producer, has been hit with droughts and unexpected cold snaps, which means smaller harvests.
✅ Supply chain chaos—Between shipping delays and rising labor costs, getting coffee from farm to cup is pricier than ever.
✅ Increased global demand—Coffee consumption is on the rise, but supply isn’t keeping up.
All of this means that coffee prices across the board are trending upward. And while we love a good trend (pumpkin spice season, anyone?), this one isn’t exactly our favorite.
What This Means for Your Cup of Java Momma
Right now, we’ve got some good news and some let’s-keep-an-eye-on-this news.
☕ The Good News: We’ve locked in pricing on our most popular Brazilian beans for the short term, which means that for now, we can hold our prices steady for our loyal coffee family. No immediate sticker shock here!
☕ The Maybe-Not-So-Good News: If market trends continue, securing affordable beans will get trickier, and down the road, price adjustments might be necessary. We’re doing everything we can to keep your coffee affordable, but we also want to be upfront with you—because transparency is how we roll.
What Can You Do?
If you’ve been thinking about stocking up on your Java Momma favorites, now is the time while prices remain steady. Grab an extra bag (or three), make sure your coffee stash is full, and lock in your favorites at today’s pricing.
Oh, and a little heads-up—we’re making a small adjustment to our Coffee Flight Discount starting March 1st. Instead of 3 bags, the discount will now apply to 4 bags or more for the same 10% savings. It’s still a great deal, and it’s our way of keeping things sustainable while making sure you get the best quality coffee at the best value.
As always, we appreciate every sip you take with us. Thanks for being part of the Java Momma family—we’ll keep you updated as we navigate these changes together!
Stay caffeinated and stay fabulous,
☕ The Java Momma Team ☕
