What is National Coffee Day?

Coffee Day began in Japan in 1983 and made its way stateside not long after. National Coffee Day is exactly what it sounds like: A celebration of that magical bean that wakes and warms us up. But it goes beyond just a celebration of java itself, encouraging us to honor those who farm, produce and distribute coffee using fair-trade practices.

There’s also International Coffee Day, which takes place in October. This year, International Coffee Day is on Sunday, Oct. 1, 2023.
