- Naturally Low Caffeine: On average, Arabica coffee contains around 1.2% - 1.5% caffeine. Laurina? It only has around 0.4% - 0.7% caffeine.
- This is very low! Since caffeine is one of the triggers for excess stomach acid production, this low content keeps your stomach calm
- Low Acidity: In addition to its low caffeine content, Laurina's flavor profile tends to be less “sharp.” It doesn't have the piercing acidity of East African coffees, making it gentler on the stomach lining.
How does it taste? Still delicious, of course! You might be thinking, “If it has less caffeine, doesn't it taste bland?” Quite the opposite! Laurina is often referred to as one of the most delicious coffees in the world. Because caffeine has a naturally bitter taste, the low caffeine content in Laurina actually brings out its extraordinary sweetness.
When you try it, you will experience:
- High sweetness (similar to brown sugar or honey).
- Elegant floral and fruity notes.
- A light and silky body (soft in the mouth).
Why is it so rare (and pricey)??
Although it sounds like a miracle solution, Laurina has one drawback: it is sensitive. Due to its low caffeine content (FYI, caffeine is actually a natural pesticide in coffee trees to repel insects), Laurina trees are susceptible to pests and produce low yields. That's why Laurina is often categorized as a rare specialty coffee and is priced slightly above average.
