the only state that grows coffee is hawaii and their coffee is already more expensive than anything you'll find on the shelf now
Puerto Rico.
Still 2 to 4x the cost of beans from other countries, more than the tariffs.
The high price is from high labor costs. So, once tarrifs happen, it'll be competitive, no?
Are the tariffs 1-300%?
Jones act probably matters somewhat here too
and apparently california now too--though i don't know if they sell it, or are still working on getting production going
Not a state, a colony.
... and that's relevant, how? Were talking about tarrifs. Puerto Rican coffee has no increase in tarrifs. Puerto rico grows coffee - not a particularly huge amount of it, (yet), but it's good.
So far
