To tell you, lattes and cappuccinos are not "a" coffee, they are a drink, and the taste of this drink is made up of espresso plus milk and milk foam. The flavor of espresso is made by coffee beans, the protagonist of this article.

In fact, coffee beans are not beans, coffee beans are the seeds of coffee fruit, which are processed, roasted, ground and brewed by baristas in the factory before they become the coffee we drink. Drinking wine is drinking the grapes used in making wine, in the same way, drinking coffee, in fact, what you are drinking is the taste of coffee beans!

● since coffee beans are seeds, their genes (tree species) and growth environment (origin) are different, so do different coffee beans taste different?

Grapes have been eaten. Red grapes, black grapes and white jade grapes are all grapes, but there is a great difference in taste because of their different genes (tree species) and growing environment (origin). The same is true of coffee beans, the influence of tree species and producing area on the flavor is very obvious.

At present, the two most common coffee varieties with economic circulation value are Arabica/ Arabica and Robusta/ Robsta. What's the difference between the two? If you want to popularize science quickly, please see the picture below.

It can be seen that Robusta has lower sweetness and fat than Arabica, but high caffeine. However, because of its high output (several times that of Arabica), it is mostly used to produce instant coffee and canned coffee, although it is really bad. So please drink Arabica for coffee and say the important things three times! In line with the sense of mission of the coffee preacher, we will only discuss (He) Arabica in the future!

In nature, our classification standard for an organism is to name an organism according to boundary, phylum, class, order, family, genus and species, and "species" should be the smallest taxonomic naming. The name Arabica, in fact, there are thousands of different subspecies, experts call it variety, different variety flavor performance has a huge difference.
