Arabica: complexity in the cup
Typically grown at higher elevations, Arabica is prized for its aromatic complexity and varied flavor profiles—from floral and citrus notes to chocolate and nuts.
Robusta: strength with character
Higher in caffeine and generally more resilient, Robusta brings body and intensity to many espresso blends. Fine Robusta is also earning recognition for its distinctive sensory qualities.
