One of the original varieties of Libyan coffee beans
Liberian species (scientific name Coffea liberica)
West Africa, the origin of coffee grown in Liberia, has a strong adaptability to all kinds of environments, such as high or low temperature, humidity or dryness, except that it is not resistant to leaf rust and its flavor is worse than that of Arabica, so it is only traded or planted in some West African countries (Libya, C ô te d'Ivoire, etc.).
About 65% of the coffee in circulation in the world market is Arabica.
According to the statistics of ICO (International Coffee Organization), excluding the domestic transactions of coffee-producing countries, about 65% of the coffee in circulation in the world market is Arabica and 35% is robusta. Arabica species are characterized by slender and flat grains, while robusta coffee beans are more round and can be easily distinguished by their shape.

The robusta species (scientific name Coffea robusta Linden), which is resistant to leaf rust, is found in the African Congo and has stronger disease resistance than the Arabica species. The hot and humid zone that is not suitable for Arabica coffee is where Robusta grows coffee. Robusta has a unique aroma and bitter taste, accounting for only 2% or 3% of the mixed coffee, and the whole cup of coffee becomes Rob.
