Preferred term

robusta coffee

There are two main species of commercial coffee - Coffea arabica and C. canephora (robusta) . Robusta is a lower quality coffee and prices are normally about 30 to 40% less than Arabica. Robusta is used mainly in instant coffee and for blending with Arabicas to add body and crema. Robusta is normally grown in warmer areas at lower elevations unsuited to Arabica, and is considered resistant/tolerant to coffee rust. Compared with Arabica, Robusta is generally more vigorous, more productive and less vulnerable to rust.
