Why did Starbucks choose Arabica Coffee beans, Robusta

Basically, it can be said that the quality of the coffee beans determines the ceiling of a cup of coffee, and the barista determines the height at which the coffee beans can reach. The two most important factors that determine the quality of coffee beans are the origin of coffee beans and the roasting of coffee beans.

For large chain coffee shops like Xingjia and C, 100% Arabica beans can still be guaranteed. However, due to cost, weather, source of supply and other factors, I lack comprehensive data, so there is no way to compare the origin in detail. However, it is certain that Starbucks on the mainland and Starbucks in North America have different sources of coffee beans. Starbucks on the mainland mostly buys coffee beans from Yunnan and roasts them with coffee beans from other places around the world to become the so-called "comprehensive beans."

Of course, I am not saying that "comprehensive beans" is not good. It is with "comprehensive beans" + global procurement that every cup of coffee can be guaranteed to maintain the same quality, and it is possible for large coffee chains to survive.

The same global procurement of comprehensive beans, from the choice of origin, Costa is obviously more exquisite than Starbucks. Costa claims that only 1 per cent of coffee beans enter their purchasing process and ensures that all coffee beans come from coffee chains on RFA certified farms, and that the future of the first chain that controls the entire coffee process is closely related to coffee growers. As a result, we will manage the mutually beneficial cooperation with coffee growers and growing communities as carefully as growers cultivate coffee beans. Starbucks is committed to helping coffee growers achieve fair returns, improve living standards, and ensure that everyone in the coffee community can benefit from the coffee industry, thereby promoting the continuous supply of high-quality coffee at Starbucks. In order to select the world's high-quality coffee beans, we only buy coffee cherries with luxuriant leaves, which are ripe and in good appearance. It is screened over and over again according to the criteria of size, color and plumpness. Some people may call it obsessive-compulsive disorder, but we think this is the best coffee we pursue.

1. In a broad sense, there are two kinds of coffee beans in the world, Arabica beans and Robosta beans. The earliest Arab way to eat coffee was to chew the whole fruit (Coffee Cherry) to absorb its juice. They then mixed the ground coffee beans with animal fat as a physical supplement for long trips, and it was not until about 1000 AD that the green coffee beans were boiled in boiling water to make an aromatic drink.

2. Three centuries later, the Arabs began to bake and grind coffee beans. Because drinking is strictly forbidden in the Koran, Arabs consume a lot of coffee, so religion is actually a big factor in the popularity of coffee in the Arab world.
