Although Robusta is one of the three major varieties of coffee, his chromosome number is different from that of Arabica, so his characteristics are quite different: the same number of coffee beans contain twice as much caffeine as Arabica. It can adapt to the lower altitude and difficult growth environment, and the survival rate is higher than Arabica, so Robusta has always produced the most of the three varieties. And the main flavor is very similar to wheat tea, and the sweetness is low.

The Italians were the first countries to use Robusta. They used this coffee as one of the beans in the formula of espresso (espresso) to increase the thickness of coffee's crema (coffee fat) and alcohol. Because Robusta is cheaper, the more you go south, you will find that the more it will be added. Apart from Italy, Vietnam and Malaysia are the most used countries, while in Taiwan, they are mostly used as commercial coffee.

In recent years, many high-quality Robusta have appeared on the market, and you can vaguely see that someone is improving this variety, as well as the way it is made. This is because he attended a visiting course at National Chengchi University Cafe three years ago, and Alice himself was impressed by the fact that he had drunk a strong Robusta coffee. Although there is not yet a set of rules to rate Robusta, his boutique is a rise that cannot be ignored.
