About this listen
This is your Daily Coffee Price Tracker with Vanessa Clark podcast.
Welcome back to another episode of the Daily Coffee Price Tracker. I am your host, Vanessa Clark. Today is Tuesday, November fourth, twenty twenty-five, and I am here to keep you in the know on all things coffee prices and market movements. Whether you are a barista, a coffee lover, or just curious about what is happening behind every cup, you are in the right spot.
Let’s kick off with the headline number everyone wants to know—the latest coffee trading prices. On the global stage, coffee prices are making headlines with some of the steepest increases we have seen in years. The London Robusta futures for January twenty twenty-six closed at four thousand six hundred ninety-three dollars per metric ton, while New York Arabica coffee futures for December twenty twenty-five settled at an impressive four hundred six cents per pound. That is a big jump, and it is being felt across the industry.
Zooming into Vietnam, which is the world’s top producer of robusta beans, prices at origin spiked to an average of one hundred nineteen thousand Vietnamese dong per kilogram. There are regional highs in places like Dak Lak, where prices hit that one hundred nineteen thousand mark, and slightly lower but still strong numbers in Lam Dong and Gia Lai.
So, why are we seeing this price rally now? Two big factors are in play. First is the extreme weather. Brazil, the world’s coffee powerhouse, has had below-average rainfall, which is never good news for the arabica crop. The forecast is improving slightly, with more rain expected this month, but the damage to the outlook is already affecting global supply. Meanwhile, all eyes are on Typhoon Number Thirteen as it heads toward Vietnam’s coffee-growing regions, threatening exactly the robusta crop that is so vital to the world market. Even the possibility of crop damage has traders on high alert, pushing prices up fast.
Second, there’s a major shakeup in the international trade scene. The United States recently imposed a hefty fifty percent tariff on coffee imports from Brazil, which provides about one-third of America’s coffee supply. This trade disruption is causing American roasters to scramble for alternative sources, leading to even higher demand—and higher prices—for beans from other countries like Vietnam.
The effects of this spike are not just something you see on trading screens. Reuters reports that American consumers are now paying up to forty percent more for their daily cup, and those prices look likely to stick around as long as the supply chain remains stressed and weather risks are stacking up.
What can you do with this information if you are running a coffee business or you are just trying to save on your favorite brew? If you are in retail or hospitality, consider locking in contracts with your suppliers soon to hedge against further volatility. For everyday coffee drinkers, shopping in bulk or exploring alternative origins could help manage costs. And for those who love experimenting with coffee at home, now’s a great time to try different brewing methods that get the most flavor out of every bean—after all, with higher prices, you want every cup to count.
That wraps up today’s Daily Coffee Price Tracker. If you found this coffee market update helpful, be sure to subscribe and share this podcast with your coffee-loving friends. I am Vanessa Clark, and I will be back tomorrow with the latest on coffee prices, trends, and what is brewing in the world of coffee. Thanks for listening, and may your cup always be full.
