Description
Arabica coffee beans are characterized by their unique flavor profile, which is often described as sweet with hints of chocolate, caramel, and nuts, with a slight acidity and a touch of bitterness. They also tend to have a winey tone due to their higher acidity compared to Robusta beans. Arabica beans have a characteristic shape with an uneven, S-shaped groove down the center when roasted.
