Interesting coffee facts we like: Coffee is actually a seed. We call it a bean because its resemblance to beans. 10-15% of coffee cherries have a naturally occurring defect that allow only one seed to grow per cherry as opposed to two. This produces a smaller, rounder seed called a peaberry, rumored to taste better, the peaberry is hand sorted and could just be better selected.
