Any coffee that receives more than 80 points on a scale of 100 is considered specialty coffee. Speciality coffee is typically grown at high altitudes with great care and attention from the farmer. It is then sold at a premium to coffee traders or directly to roasters. Coffee is one of the most popular beverages in the world, with over two billion cups consumed each day. The two most popular coffee varieties are arabica and robusta. While arabica coffee is more commonly consumed in cafes and coffee shops in countries such as the United States, robusta coffee is emerging as the next wave of coffee.
