Arabica coffee beans are one of the two main species of coffee beans, the other being Robusta. They are known for their smooth, mild flavor and aromatic qualities, making them the preferred choice for many coffee enthusiasts. Grown primarily in high-altitude regions, Arabica beans thrive in cooler climates and require specific growing conditions, including rich soil and adequate rainfall. These beans account for about 60-70% of the world's coffee production. Arabica plants are more delicate and susceptible to pests and diseases compared to Robusta, which contributes to their higher price. The beans are often used in specialty coffees and are celebrated for their diverse flavor profiles.
