Arabica coffee

Arabica coffee, scientifically known as Coffea arabica, is one of the two main species of coffee beans used for brewing—including the more popular and higher-quality variety. Grown at higher altitudes in cooler climates, Arabica beans are known for their smooth, complex flavors and lower acidity compared to robusta coffee. They typically have a sweeter taste with hints of fruit and sugar. Arabica accounts for about 60-70% of the global coffee production and is preferred by many coffee enthusiasts for its overall superior taste and aroma, making it a staple in specialty coffees around the world.
