High-altitude coffee is grown at over 1,200 meters above sea level. At these altitudes, bean growth is slower due to cooler temperatures, allowing natural sugars to develop better, resulting in a cup with greater complexity of flavors, balanced acidity, and a more defined body.

Arabica coffee is milder, with higher acidity and fruity or floral notes, while Robusta is stronger, more bitter, and has a higher caffeine content. Furthermore, Arabica is grown at higher altitudes and tends to be of higher quality, while Robusta is more robust and is commonly used in blends to add body and cream.

To maintain coffee freshness, it's recommended to store it in an airtight container in a cool, dry, and dark place. Avoid contact with light, air, and moisture, as these factors accelerate oxidation and loss of aroma. If you buy coffee beans, grind only the amount you plan to use to preserve their properties for longer.

• Light roast : Highlights fruity and floral notes, with higher acidity and less body.
• Medium Roast : Balances sweetness, acidity and body, highlighting caramelized and chocolate flavors.
• Dark Roast : Intensifies roasted and bitter flavors, with less acidity and more body.

Grind size directly affects flavor extraction:

• Coarse grind : Ideal for methods such as French press, as it allows for slower extraction with less sediment.
• Medium grind : Recommended for filter or drip coffee makers, achieving a balance between acidity and body.
• Fine grind : Used for espresso, it allows for a fast and intense extraction.
• Ultra-fine grind : Perfect for Turkish coffee, as it blends with water to create a dense, aromatic infusion.
