Coffeebush

/ˈkɔfibʊʃ/ noun

Definition

A shrub or small tree of the Coffea genus that produces coffee berries.

Etymology

From coffee + bush. The term combines the name of the plant product with the growth form. Coffee plants are naturally bushes or small trees, typically pruned and cultivated for optimal berry production.

Kelly Says

Coffee bushes are subtropical plants that thrive at high altitudes in the 'bean belt' around the equator—and climate change is making it harder to find places with the right altitude, temperature, and rainfall. Some of the world's best coffee regions are literally shrinking.
