What it is

100% Arabica coffee refers to coffee made exclusively from the beans of the Coffea arabica plant. This species is native to Ethiopia and is one of the most popular coffee varieties worldwide, known for its aromatic and nuanced flavor profile. The beans are typically roasted and then ground to prepare coffee beverages.

Why it's used

Coffee manufacturers use 100% Arabica beans to create a wide range of coffee products, from whole bean and ground coffee to instant coffee and ready-to-drink beverages. Its distinct flavor is the primary reason for its use, offering a less bitter and more complex taste than other coffee varieties.

Health notes

Coffee, containing caffeine, is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA when used as a food ingredient. Caffeine is a stimulant that can temporarily increase alertness and reduce fatigue. Regulatory bodies like EFSA have evaluated caffeine and found that moderate consumption is not associated with adverse health effects in most adults. However, sensitivity to caffeine varies, and excessive intake can lead to anxiety, insomnia, and heart palpitations.

Allergen info

Coffee is not one of the nine FDA major allergens. It does not contain gluten.
