U.S. tariffs didn’t teach Brazil anything—they just taught the rest of the world to do business *without* the U.S. In August, Brazilian coffee exports to the U.S. dropped a staggering **46%**—from **562,723 down to 301,099 bags**—while exports to Mexico and Colombia surged **90%** and **578%**, respectively. Germany is now the top importer. Instant coffee exports didn’t just dip—they tanked **nearly 60%**. So let’s stop pretending this is some tough-love economic lesson—it’s a full-blown eviction notice from the U.S. market.
