robusta coffee beans

Robusta coffee (Coffea Canephora), popular for the Conilon variety, tends to be more bitter and striking. It is a species more resistant to pests and diseases, and does not necessarily need to be cultivated in high altitude regions. These variants make the robusta have a lower production cost, consequently making the bag of coffee more affordable. This species is widely used in the production of soluble coffee, which partially explains its bitter taste.
