1. Is it specialty coffee or speciality coffee?

Both specialty coffee and speciality coffee mean the same thing — high-quality coffee crafted with care and precision. The difference lies in spelling: specialty is American English, while speciality is British English, which is used in Malaysia and the UK.

2. Does specialty coffee have less or more caffeine than regular coffee?

Specialty coffee does usually have less caffeine than regular coffee, as it’s often mainly made with high-quality Arabica beans that naturally contain less caffeine than Robusta. However, the caffeine level in specialty coffee vs normal coffee also depends on blend, brewing method, and serving size.

3. Is Robusta considered a specialty coffee?

While Arabica coffee dominates the market, Robusta can be mixed in blends to create a richer, more intense flavour profile, and can even be the main ingredient in specialty coffee when cultivated and processed with care. Some examples of our Robusta-based specialty coffee blends include Kazaar and Napoli.

4. Why is specialty coffee usually more expensive?

The reason why specialty coffee usually costs more lies in its quality and craftsmanship. From selective harvesting to fair-trade sourcing and precise roasting methods, every step ensures a superior, sustainable coffee experience and raises the value of the resulting specialty blend.
