The Never Settle’s coffee plantation had been the second one to be discovered, in 1981, two years after the Battle Creek one. Columbo Robusto’s exploration went from travelling across the whole Africa, to travelling to the Middle East, and then to Asia ...
... Because the soils weren’t really good, Mr. Robusto struggled finding a somewhere he could harvest coffee on ; until he arrived just next to Hanoï, Viet Nam's capital. There he settled in a small farming just enough clammy to produce high quality coffee !
Since The Never Settle’s species is Robusta, they are pretty high in caffeine : 2 times more than classical Arabica, that’s why they’re often mixed and blended with other species...
... So as to make a great and balanced espresso ! Whereas, naturally, this may not be the best choice for amateurs who aren’t used to the real taste of the coffee, bitter than what we’re used to.
Introduced by the French in the late 19th century, coffee production in Vietnam faced challenges during the wars, but saw a resurgence in the 1990s, due to the quality of Vietnamese lands. Today, Vietnam is the second-largest coffee producer in the world, known for its robusta beans and innovative processing techniques.
Robusta is a type of coffee bean with a strong and distinct flavor that is less desirable than Arabica beans, but prized for its high caffeine content. It is often used in blends to create a balanced flavor profile with a richer taste. When roasted and brewed correctly, Robusta coffee can be a delicious and enjoyable drink.
Going from light yellow to dark brown, the color of the bean can change due to roasting level and personal preferences. A darker coffee will have a stronger, smokier flavor and lower acidity and cafeine, whereas a lighter coffee will have a more delicate flavor and higher acidity and cafeine.
