There are only two varieties of coffee in the world: arabic and robusta.

But only a few countries can find two varieties at the same time. Colombia, for example, is famous for its coffee, but it is not as famous as robusta. Robusta is a relatively economical variety of quality and is often used to produce instant coffee.

Coffee acidity is another selection criterion. The acidity is mainly related to the altitude of the producing area. Most of the world's coffee is produced at low elevations, such as Vietnam, Indonesia, Africa, Brazil, with medium to low acidity. But coffee varieties such as loja in Ecuador are rare with an altitude of 1500-2200 meters and very high acidity, so their aroma and taste are naturally outstanding. Ecuador also has the Galapagos Islands (Galapagos) in the middle of the elevation and the coffee-producing area of manabi in the lower altitude. So in Ecuador, an equatorial country smaller than Japan, you can find all kinds of coffee with different acidity and aroma. It can be called the country of origin of "all-round" coffee.
