Description

The fruit of the Robusta coffee plant turns deep red as it ripens, and takes around 6 to 8 months to do so. The fruit does not all ripen at the same time, much like blueberries – there can be ripe and unripe fruit on the same branch. We are careful to say that Robusta is not a better or worse, but just different. There are many terribly processed Arabica coffees and many well-handled Robustas. Arabica does not mean good and Robusta does not mean bad.

Cup Profile: Dark chocolate bitterness, molasses, earthy, strong body and harsh finish (intense, attractively bitter, and complex in its own right)
