Arabica coffee is often described as a Goldilocks plant; meaning it's pretty fussy: rain, sun, rich volcanic soils, not too hot, not too cold and a fair amount of altitude. Therefore, it's incredibly vulnerable to sudden climatic changes. When coffee was first commercialised, Arabica and Robusta were chosen as the strains of coffee to develop due to Arabica's sweet/fruity taste and the more hardy growing power of Robusta.
