Coffee prices were supported by concerns over tighter supply in the U.S. after a 50% tariff was imposed on exports from Brazil, reducing imports from the largest supplier.

In addition, unfavourable weather in Brazil, including cold air and frost, could affect both the current output and the 2026 crop. This has pushed New York Arabica futures to a two-month high and the longest rally since April.
