Coffea
Coffea is a genus of flowering plants in the Rubiaceae family, encompassing various coffee species.
More than just a plant genus, Coffea is the foundation of diversity and uniqueness in the world of specialty coffee. Professional roasters and baristas recognize the importance of understanding Coffea to craft exceptional and personalized coffee experiences.
A deep knowledge of Coffea’s origins and characteristics, especially of Arabica and Robusta enables coffee experts to select beans suited to their specific needs. Arabica, known for its delicate and complex flavors, is favored in specialty coffee, while Robusta, with its high caffeine content and bold bitterness, is often used to create strong, intense Espresso shots.
