WHERE TO BUY

Robusta Coffee refers to coffee that has been brewed using robusta coffee beans instead of arabica beans, which are the most common beans used to make coffee.

Robusta coffee beans have on average 83% more caffeine than arabica beans, so making coffee with these beans will produce a cup of coffee with 83% more caffeine.

According to CoffeeChemistry.com a robusta bean is 2.2% caffeine, while an arabica bean is 1.2% caffeine.

There are many factors that can influence the exact caffeine content of robusta coffee including: growing conditions, bean quality, and brewing method.

Why isn't robusta coffee more popular?

Most people feel that robusta lacks the flavor that arabica beans possess.

Also, robusta is harder to grow because it needs more rainfall and warmer temperatures, thus limiting where it can grow. 

However, robusta coffee is catching on because of its high caffeine content and is the secret behind Death Wish Coffee, a highly caffeinated popular coffee.
