2020 Coffee Trends
From exciting drinks to different ways to purchase your coffee, there are some exciting changes in store for 2020. Learn more about some hot coffee trends and make sure you browse our wide selection of wholesale coffee beans!
Oat Milk, Almond Milk and Other Non-Dairy Milk
If you frequent coffee shops or own a coffee shop of your own, then you’ve probably heard oat milk and almond milk lattes requested over and over again.
The world of non-dairy milk alternatives has exploded beyond soy milk in the last few years — especially the popularity surrounding oat and almond milk. In fact, almond milk overtook soy as the most popular milk alternative in 2019, and oat milk is well on its way due to its environmentally friendly allure! Either one can be a perfect option for any latte or iced coffee!
Next time you’re ordering a latte or creating a new coffee drink for your shop, consider swapping out your dairy for oat or almond milk!
Sustainable Packaging
Many consumers are looking for sustainable packaging and moving away from plastic and one-time use coffee cups and pods. Customers are also seeking out strawless lids and reusable cups, and most coffee shops have started offering their own alternative.
If you’re looking for a sustainable way to keep your coffee bean supply intact, consider ordering wholesale coffee beans from Kaldi!
Iced Coffee
Iced coffee is a delicious summer treat, but it’s quickly becoming a year-round classic. Part of this could be due to the expanding iced coffee market. In the past, ice coffee used to contain lots of sugars and syrups. But now, we’ve seen a drastic increase in the market of cold brews, ranging from nitro cold brews to cold brews infused with pumpkin and other flavors.
Sustainable and Certified Coffee
In addition to sustainable packaging, consumers are also looking for coffee beans that are grown sustainably and certified. This has pushed the coffee industry to create certifications to help ensure that coffee bean farmers are using natural and environmentally responsible methods.
This is also something that’s important to our team at Kaldi. That’s why we offer a wide range of Fair Trade and certified coffee beans. Learn more about our personal commitment to sustainability — and our certified coffee beans — through our previous blogs:
Black Coffee
Black coffee is in! Consumers are moving away from dairy products, but some are also opting for black coffee over other non-dairy alternatives. This leaves the market open for flavored coffee beans. If you’re not adding sugar or cream to your morning cup of coffee, it’s more important to find a blend or flavored coffee you love.
