A brief introduction to the influence of altitude on coffee cultivation

In coffee fields, elevation marks quality

High Altitude: Good Arabica beans grow at the highest altitude at which coffee trees can grow, i.e. anywhere above 450 degrees. High altitude, special microclimate with its perfect combination of temperature, sun and rain to breed high-quality coffee beans. Cooler temperatures at night also delay the ripening of coffee berries, allowing coffee flavor to develop more fully

Low Altitude: Robert coffee is usually grown at low altitudes. They are larger than Arabica coffee fruits, ripen faster, but are less dense. Robett coffee trees are easier to grow and more resistant to disease. Almost half of the world's coffee is grown as Robert coffee because it's simpler to grow, but it tends to have a lower flavor

Coffee Bean Density: How does the elevation of the coffee growing area affect coffee quality? At high altitudes, warmer temperatures during the day and cooler temperatures at night can slow coffee berry growth. The longer growth time of coffee trees means that coffee beans have more time to develop rich and complex flavor curves. What is the result of growing coffee in the highlands? Coffee beans are harder, smaller in shape and richer in flavor. The denser the coffee beans, the deeper the roasting depth they can withstand.
