What are Arabica Coffee Beans?

Arabica coffee beans are one of the most popular and widely cultivated types of coffee beans in the world. With origins in Brazil and Columbia, they are prized for their superior quality, complex flavours, and aroma with a 3/5 intensity level. They are typically smoother and sweeter than other coffee types as a pleasant medium roast.
Arabica coffee plants are typically grown at higher altitudes in regions with cool climates and plenty of rainfall. These conditions contribute to the beans' complex flavour profile. However, these conditions also make Arabica plants more sensitive to environmental changes and diseases compared to other types of coffee. As a result, Arabica beans tend to be more expensive to produce.

What do Arabica Coffee Beans Taste Like?

Arabica coffee beans usually have notes of fruit, milk chocolate and nuts such as almonds, as well as floral undertones. Coffee Arabica beans have a smooth, sweet taste that can vary depending on which region they’re grown in. Robusta beans in comparison have a stronger, harsher and more bitter taste.

Robusta coffee beans vs Arabica beans

Robusta and Arabica coffee beans are the two main types of coffee beans, each with distinct characteristics that influence their flavour, cultivation, and use in coffee blends. While Arabica coffee beans are known for their rich, smooth flavour, Robusta coffee beans have a stronger, earthier flavour.
Arabica coffee beans tend to have a delicate taste with notes of fruit, berries, chocolate, and nuts. On the other hand, Robusta coffee beans have nutty, and sometimes woody notes.
While Robusta coffee beans are typically used in instant coffee and lower-cost coffee blends, Arabica coffee beans are used in high-quality, speciality coffee blends and single-origin coffees.

Arabica Coffee Beans FAQs

How do you store Arabica coffee beans?

Coffee Arabica beans should be stored in sealed, airtight containers away from direct sunlight. Coffee beans can keep for a year in a sealed container and up to a month after they’ve been opened. While Arabica coffee beans don’t go off, they will grow stale and lose their flavour and aroma over time.

You can buy UK Arabica coffee beans in 500g and 1kg bags. You can buy 5 or 10 cases at a time, or half a pallet (40 cases) and a pallet (80 cases). It’s better value to bulk-buy 100% Arabica coffee beans than buy them in smaller batches.

The Arabica coffee bean grows well in tropical countries close to the equator. They do particularly well in Ethiopia, India, Guatemala, Colombia and Brazil. Arabica coffee plants are typically grown at higher altitudes, between 2,000 and 6,000 feet, in regions with plenty of rainfall.

Roasting coffee Arabica beans depends on the method you use and batch size. You will need to heat the coffee beans in the roaster. As the beans heat, they will crack twice. After the first crack, the Arabica coffee beans will expand and release aromatic oils. You can stop at the first crack for a light roast. If you continue for a medium or dark roast, the coffee Arabica beans will crack for a second time. The key is to monitor the roast closely to achieve the desired flavour profile, balancing acidity, sweetness, and body.
We sell a variety of high-quality coffee machines and grinders that will give you the perfect Arabica coffee bean roast.
