Rubusto beans are generally more caffeinated (up to 50% more) than the more praised Arabica varietal, but are notably more bitter and a lot cheaper.
To get around the bitter issue, we just roast 'dark,' which kills it off, but still leaves some caffeine, since it started off with more by being the rubusto floral.
They're a lot cheaper to begin with.
Most people don't know what a truly good cup of coffee/bean tastes like.
