Coffee, a beloved beverage that connects the world, is as complex as it is flavorful. Its essence lies in the beans used to brew this delightful drink, and understanding the different varieties is key to appreciating the nuances of your morning cup. At xBloom, we celebrate the diversity of coffee. Our carefully curated selection from top-notch global roasters ensures that you can experience the best of what each bean variety has to offer. Today, let's learn about the four types of coffee varieties:
Robusta Beans
Robusta beans are known for their strong, robust flavor and are often found in espresso blends. They thrive in harsh climates and are resistant to pests, which makes them a popular choice for growers. These beans contain a higher caffeine content compared to others, which not only contributes to their bitter taste but also provides a certain kick that coffee lovers crave. Robusta is often less expensive and has a reputation for being the go-to bean for a hearty, full-bodied coffee experience.
Arabica Beans
Arabica is the darling of coffee aficionados. It's widely appreciated for its smooth, sophisticated flavors and lower caffeine content. These beans are grown at higher altitudes, which contributes to their sweetness and complex flavor profiles that can range from fruity to floral. Arabica beans make up the majority of the coffee consumed worldwide and are the staple bean for specialty coffee shops, including xBloom's selection.
Liberica Beans
Liberica is a rarer find and is cherished for its unique aromatic properties. It has a distinct shape and an exceptional flavor profile that includes fruity and floral notes, with a hint of woody or smoky taste. Grown in specific climates, Liberica beans offer a distinct experience that can expand a coffee lover's palate and appreciation for diverse coffee profiles.
Excelsa Beans
Excelsa, which is actually a variant of Liberica, boasts a tart, fruity profile that is often likened to the light acidity of some wines. It contributes a vibrant flavor complexity to blends, adding layers of depth with its unusual but pleasant taste. Excelsa grows primarily in Southeast Asia and is valued for its ability to bring an extraordinary edge to the coffee it's used in.
In sum, whether you're enjoying our xPods or indulging in a specialty roast, know that you're partaking in a story that spans continents and cultures, all within the comfort of your home.
