A Robusta Chicory blend coffee typically combines Robusta coffee beans with chicory root. Here’s a breakdown of each component:

1. **Robusta Coffee Beans**:
– Robusta beans are known for their strong flavor, higher caffeine content, and often have a more bitter taste compared to Arabica beans.
– They are commonly used in espresso blends and instant coffee due to their robust nature and ability to hold up well in strong brews.

2. **Chicory Root**:
– Chicory root is a plant whose root is roasted, ground, and used as an additive or substitute for coffee.
– It adds a woody, slightly nutty flavor to the coffee blend and can also impart a smoothness to the brew.
– Chicory is often used to stretch coffee supplies or to create a unique flavor profile that differs from pure coffee.
