Robusta May Be The Coffee Of The Future

May 16th 2023

Fine washed Robusta from India features a clean rich cup with smooth body, bold flavor and hints of spice and chocolate, without the bitterness sometimes experienced in Robusta. 

Robusta is perfect for anyone looking for a strong cup of coffee with a kick of caffeine, that is also low in acidity. Robusta naturally contains about twice the caffeine of Arabica. 

Robusta coffee from India is notable for many reasons. In India, many of the farms have been in the same family for over 100 years. They apply the same care to the cultivation, harvest and processing of Robusta coffee as they do with Arabica. 

Robusta is often considered more sustainable than Arabica coffee for several reasons. It is hardier and more resistant to pests and diseases, grows well at lower elevations, and has a higher yield per plant when compared to Arabica. That means more high quality coffee can be produced with less land, water, and other resources. 

With India's huge commitment to the specialty coffee trade, they have created several varietals of Robusta that have gained recognition for their flavor profiles and cup quality, making Robusta the coffee of the future.
