The Coffee plant

Coffee tree The coffee plant belongs to the Rubiacea family and the Coffea class, that includes numberless species. It grows in approx. a hundred tropical countries spread over every continent except Europe, and originates from Ethiopia and the African Horn, where it still grows wild.

From the point of view of quality, the class comprehends two main species and two lesser ones: "Coffea Arabica" divided into "Brazil Coffees" if they originate from Brazil, and "Other Mild Coffee" (other sweet species) if they originate from other geographical areas.

From Coffea Canephora var. "Robusta" we obtain the coffee beans "robusta", that are often used mixed with "arabica" beans.
