Bourbon Pointu: Discovered in Bourbon Island in 1810, the bean body has changed from round to pointed, with only half the caffeine content; but the quantity is small and weak, and it is extremely precious (mostly cultivated in the laboratory).

Maragogype (or Elephant Bean): The best-known variety of tibeka bean, first discovered in 1870 in the Maragogype bean-growing region of the northeastern Brazilian state of Bahia, the bean is at least three times larger than the average Arabica, hence the name.
