Everybody loves to dis robusta as if it were the foulest thing on earth. It often is. But unfortunately, there’s a lot of good robusta, specialty coffee robusta — particularly from places like India and some from Uganda — that are handled as well as some of the best arabica beans around. And when added as an element in a blend for espresso, for example, they can help produce excellent crema, aroma, and round out the flavor spectrum in the cup.
