"Coffee beans are beans." -the average coffee consumer (we all start here) "Coffee beans are cherries." -the more educated coffee enthusiast "Coffee beans are seeds." -the coffee connoisseur (you'll probably end up here) Even though all beans are seeds, not all seeds are beans. Beans belong to the legume family; however, you won't find the coffee tree in that family. Kind of the black sheep, if you will. Consequently, the seeds of the coffee tree are not beans.
