More about Robusta
For the past fifty years, Robusta has been misunderstood, often dismissed as the low-grade coffee filling cheap cans at the supermarket. It was the coffee you hid behind syrups and milky drinks, a bean with a bad reputation. While it’s long been embraced in Italy, particularly in espresso blends, Robusta is now making a comeback—thanks to advancements in processing, especially in places like Vietnam.
Our Robusta comes from Vietnam’s Dak Lak region, where the beans are roasted slow and low to enhance their rich body and distinctive flavors. Expect delicious notes of toasted basmati rice and cashews, with a smooth cocoa powder finish. With double the caffeine of Arabica, it’s the perfect pick-me-up to energize your day.
Why Robusta?
Robusta is known for its bold, savory notes and low acidity. Its smooth, rich texture makes it an easy-drinking coffee that pairs beautifully with food. This coffee offers a distinct alternative to traditional brews, perfect for those who are ready to explore new flavors.
Robusta has never made it onto a Gregorys menu before but there is no time like the present. We challenge ourselves to see coffee differently and once we took a look at this Vietnamese charmer we all became Pro-busta!
