Arabica beans are known for their delicate flavors, higher acidity, and desirable aroma, making them a preferred choice for specialty coffee. They are typically grown at higher altitudes and are more susceptible to pests and diseases.<\/p><p>On the other hand, Robusta beans are more robust and have a stronger, more bitter flavor profile. They contain more caffeine and are often used in espresso blends for their crema and caffeine content. Robusta plants are hardier and more resistant to pests and disease, thriving at lower altitudes and in harsher climates.<\/p><p>In the global coffee market, Arabica beans usually command a higher price due to their superior flavor profile and quality. They are favored by specialty coffee shops and consumers looking for a premium coffee experience. Robusta beans, on the other hand, are more commonly used in instant coffee, espresso blends, and as a filler in lower-cost coffees. They are generally more affordable and contribute to the production of mass-market coffee products.
