Typica
The Typica coffee variety is one of the oldest and most classic varieties of Arabica coffee, constituting the genetic basis of many modern varieties grown around the world. Originally from Ethiopia and spread in the 17th century by the Dutch, Typica reached Latin America and Asia, where it is still valued for its unique flavor and aroma.
Typica is characterized by average crop yields, but its taste is highly valued by connoisseurs. This variety of coffee has a complex sensory profile that combines delicate floral and fruity notes, with accents of nuts, chocolate and honey. It is this subtle balance that makes Typica one of the most desirable specialty coffees.
Typica plants are relatively tall, with elongated branches and large, dark green leaves. However, this variety is quite sensitive to diseases such as coffee rust (Hemileia vastatrix) and to unfavourable climatic conditions, which means that its cultivation requires a lot of care and diligence. In return for the effort put into care, growers can count on coffee of exceptional quality, the taste of which can satisfy even the most demanding connoisseurs.
Due to its history and classic flavour profile, Typica enjoys a high reputation among growers, roasters and baristas who seek a traditional, authentic coffee experience.
