Glossary

Bourbon —compact fruitful plant; together with Tipika is used to create hybrids; adds sweetness to the flavor of coffee.

Catimor —fertile and disease resistant cultivar; introduces fruity notes to the drink.

Katuai —dwarf hybrid cultivar adapted to growth at high altitudes; has high acidity.

Caturra —hybrid plant derived from Bourbon; has very high yield and high acidity.

Tipika —the principal (typical) Arabica plant originally from Ethiopia; often serves as the basis for selection work.

On the Indonesian island of Java, Tipika and Catimor coffee plants grow at the height of 1400–1600 meters (4600–5300 feet). Indonesian beans give the coffee thick crema, nutty tones and a stable aftertaste.

Costa Rican coffee grows on Katuai and Caturra plants at the height of 1500 meters (5000 feet). This Arabica is the source of sour orange notes in the blend.

Berries from all three countries are wet-processed.

The origin of beans
