Many people don't realize it, but there are actually 2 different types of coffee beans that produce the coffee that you drink every day. And they have differences that you might not be aware of. Have you ever noticed that a more expensive coffee generally tastes better? More than likely, it's because it's an Arabica coffee. 😅

Here are the differences:
Arabica:
This variety of coffee is typically smoother in flavor, and is sweeter and fruitier. It also has less caffeine than Robusta, and the beans are harder to grow, which is why it generally costs more. Most specialty coffees are generally this variety.
Robusta:
Coffee that comes from these beans is mostly more "rough" in flavor and more bitter. It is easier to grow, but is also cheaper to buy. Instant coffees are generally Robusta. When you buy a cheaper coffee in general, it's probably going to be this variety.
Final thoughts
These are the basic differences in Robusta Vs. Arabica coffee. It really comes down to personal preference as far as which one you choose to drink. I love most coffee, but I do prefer Arabicas because they are smoother and taste better overall.
