- Arabica Coffee (a-RAB-ica): One of
two species of coffee plants (the other is Robusta)
grown for human consumption and considered the
most desirable of the two. Originated on the
Arabian Peninsula, now grown around the world
in a narrow bank of tropical countries between
the Tropic of Cancer and the Tropic of Capricorn.

- Assam Tea: Although there have been
some uniquely processed white Assams, basically
Assam is the strong soldier of tea, hearty,
fragrant, stands up beautifully to milk, and
excellent for heartier recipes. An ideal tea
for blending with those teas that need a little
punch. Brews to golden or red gold
liquors.
