I love Coffee
Let's go to decide what coffee do you like more
What is Arabica coffee?
Arabica coffee is a type of coffee made from the beans
of the Coffea arabica plant. Arabica originated in the
southwestern highlands of Ethiopia and is the most
popular kind of coffee worldwide – making up 60% or more of coffee
production in the world. Second to arabica in popularity is
robusta coffee which is made from the beans of the
Coffea canephora plant.
High-quality arabica coffee should have a
slightly sweet flavor, with hints of
chocolate, nuts, and caramel. You may also notice hints
of fruit and berries. There will be a slight/pleasant
acidity and a little bitterness. Cold brewing coffee can help bring out
the sweet flavors of arabica even more.
And when you're deciding how to make coffee at home, grabbing a bag
of arabica will give you the best results.
What is Robusta coffee?
Robusta coffee is a type of coffee made from the beans
(seeds) of the Coffea canephora plant. Robusta originated in
central and western sub-Saharan Africa. It is the
second most popular coffee in the world, making up 40% of the world's
coffee production. It comes second only to arabica (from the Coffea
arabica plant) which makes up the remaining 60% (or more) of coffee
production worldwide.
Robusta coffee tastes
earthy and is often said to have a bitter, rubbery/grain-like flavor,
with a peanutty aftertaste.
Robusta coffee beans contain more caffeine and less sugar than
arabica beans, and therefore taste stronger and harsher than arabica.
Which is Better: Arabica or Robusta?
If you're going with popular opinion (or my opinion): arabica is the better bean. I hear that a very high-quality robusta coffee can be quite nice, but I haven't tasted one yet. In the past, a lot of instant coffee was made from robusta beans, which may explain why it has had a bad reputation (at least in North America). But there have been improvements in the world of instant coffee and the use of 100% arabica has improved the flavor. But then again people like different things, perhaps you like instant coffee made from robusta, or maybe you like bitter, rubbery flavors. If that's the case, you would probably say robusta tastes better. If you're deciding based on the caffeine punch then robusta is the clear winner. So I guess the real answer to this question depends on how big of a jolt you want, or what your taste buds tell you is delicious. For me, and the majority of human beans (get that bean joke there? Sad – I know, but a girl can try) it's arabica coffee.
