Robusta is uncommon within specialty coffee circles as the cup score is not as high as its more popular cousin, Arabica. There’s a couple of reasons we decided to bring in Robusta on this container from Vietnam. In no order of importance: First, we wanted to have a more budget friendly option for roasters who don’t need the higher cup scores of arabica. Second, we honestly love that robusta is disease-resistant and much more productive than its higher scoring relative. As production and processing techniques continue to improve we have seen robusta cupping scores rise, and this lot is a benefactor of that. So, while not the highest scoring coffee you can get from Bodhi, it might be up your alley. If it is, then it’s a win/win for you and
