Robusta coffee (Coffea canephora) is extensively cultivated in the Philippines and is particularly well-suited to lowland regions. This preference for lowlands can be attributed to a combination of factors, including its resilience, disease resistance, and high caffeine content. Additionally, Robusta thrives in warmer temperatures, which are typically found in lowland areas. In contrast, the cooler temperatures of highland regions are less favorable for Robusta production, resulting in reduced yields. The beans of Robusta coffee offer a bold and full-bodied flavor profile, characterized by delightful notes of chocolate, nuts, and earthiness. Due to its robust nature and distinct taste, Robusta is commonly used in various coffee blends, instant coffee production, and serves as a popular base for espresso preparations. | Robusta coffee (Coffea canephora) is extensively cultivated in the Philippines and is particularly well-suited to lowland regions.
