Writer: Indyaah OrganicIndyaah Organic

Introduction

For coffee lovers, exploring the various types of coffee beans is an adventure in taste, aroma, and culture. Each bean variety brings a unique flavor profile influenced by its origin and cultivation method. At Hustlers Coffee, we’re passionate about curating beans from the finest sources in India, Vietnam, and beyond to help you discover a coffee that suits your tastes. Here’s an in-depth look at some of the most popular coffee bean varieties and their distinct characteristics.


Coffee Bean Varieties


Arabica Coffee: The World’s Favorite Bean

Arabica coffee, known for its smooth, complex flavor with hints of fruitiness and floral notes, is the most popular bean worldwide. Grown primarily in regions with higher altitudes, like South America, Ethiopia, and India, Arabica beans are prized for their light body and acidity. They contain less caffeine than other varieties, making them ideal for those who enjoy a gentle coffee experience. At Hustlers Coffee, our Arabica Catimor blend offers a delightful introduction to Arabica’s nuanced flavors.


Robusta Coffee: Strong and Bold

Robusta coffee is bold, intense, and packed with caffeine. Known for its earthy, nutty flavors, Robusta is widely cultivated in Vietnam and parts of Africa. It’s often used in espresso blends for its rich crema and body. If you’re looking for a powerful morning brew, Hustlers Coffee’s Robusta options deliver a full-bodied experience with that signature strength Robusta drinkers crave.


Catimor Coffee: A Unique Hybrid

Catimor is a hybrid bean variety combining Arabica’s delicate notes with Robusta’s resilience. Originally developed in Portugal, Catimor thrives in Southeast Asia, particularly Vietnam, where it’s celebrated for its fruity and slightly spicy flavors. At Hustlers Coffee, our Vietnamese Arabica Catimor blend showcases Catimor’s unique character, making it a perfect choice for those wanting to experiment.


Peaberry Coffee: A Rare Find

Peaberry beans are a unique mutation where the coffee cherry develops a single bean rather than the usual two. These beans, primarily sourced from Tanzania, India, and Brazil, are known for their concentrated flavor. Peaberry coffee is often more aromatic, with a brighter acidity and a smooth mouthfeel. If you’re after a rare treat, try our Peaberry Roast for an exceptional coffee experience.


Luwak Coffee: An Exotic Experience

Luwak, or civet coffee, is one of the most exotic and controversial coffee varieties. Originating from Indonesia, it’s made from beans that have been eaten and digested by civet cats, which is believed to impart a unique flavor. Known for its smooth body and caramel notes, Luwak coffee offers a distinctive taste for adventurous coffee drinkers.
