Starbucks' higher Arabica standards

Excellent coffee comes from quality coffee beans.

Unlike ordinary Arabica coffee beans, Starbucks Arabica coffee beans come from high-quality plantations. Starbucks has always spared no effort to abide by high standards for the strict quality control of coffee beans.

How do we do that? That's a good question.

1. Look for the altitude first.

High-quality coffee beans often grow in high-altitude areas, where the large temperature difference between day and night, resulting in dense coffee beans, making it more thick and rich taste. But you need to taste every cup of Starbucks coffee.

two。 Everything is quality coffee.

If we can help growers grow better coffee beans, we will do our best and treat them equally wherever we go. As a result, Starbucks has opened a wide range of "grower support centers" on four continents, appointing agronomic experts to provide free soil testing, sample testing and professional advice to local growers to promote the sustainable cultivation of high-quality coffee.

3. Deep cultivation of long-term cooperative relationship

The future of coffee is closely related to coffee growers. As a result, we will manage the mutually beneficial cooperation with coffee growers and growing communities as carefully as growers cultivate coffee beans. Starbucks is committed to helping coffee growers achieve fair returns, improve living standards, and ensure that everyone in the coffee community can benefit from the coffee industry, thereby promoting the continuous supply of high-quality coffee at Starbucks.

4. Picky purchasing standards

In order to select the world's high-quality coffee beans, we only buy coffee cherries with luxuriant leaves, which are ripe and in good appearance. It is screened over and over again according to the criteria of size, color and plumpness. Some people may call it obsessive-compulsive disorder, but we think this is the best coffee we are looking for.

5. Taste it over and over again

We taste more than 1000 cups of coffee a day just to verify that it tastes good enough to satisfy everyone. Each batch of coffee will be tasted at least three times before it is approved, just to make you fall in love with every taste of Starbucks coffee.
