Why Cold Brew Coffee?
Cold brew coffee is non-conventional and an alternative brewing method that is popular with many. Sit yourself down in a quaint café and you’ll find yourself sipping on a well-brewed cold brew coffee, picking up a magazine or book you have always wanted to read. We all need room for quiet, pensive thinking with time to ourselves to reflect in the midst of hectic schedules and deadlines we scramble to meet. For avid coffee-lovers, there’s no better way to hit pause than to relax with a cup of coffee.
There’s something luring and comforting about a hearty bowl of pasta tossed in a vibrant red tomato sauce and sprinkled with just the right amount of Parmesan—and you don’t necessarily need to be European to enjoy it.

Because of this, coffee is the world’s second most valuable exported commodity next to oil—and in case you were wondering, the global coffee industry earns an estimated amount of USD 60 billion in a yeari.
But give the serious stuff a break first and focus on some interesting and fun facts that you may not have known about your daily brew.
We live in such a fast-paced age right now that most people hardly make time for breakfast anymore.

And of course, we cannot talk about breakfast without talking about coffee—the first thing most of us reach to nowadays to clear our cloudy heads from the previous evening’s slumber.
