The following notes should assist in understanding coffee, and to make your selection easier.

ROASTING:

What exactly does roasting do? The sugars, fats and starches that are within the bean are emulsified, caramelized and released. This creates the delicate coffee oil. This oil is what gives coffee its distinctive aroma and taste. Lighter roasts are sharper and more acidic than the darker roasts. Darker roasts have a fuller flavor. Beans that have been over-roasted will take on a burned, smoky or charcoal flavor. Also, there is less caffeine in the darker roasted coffees than in the lighter ones. The roast alone doesn't determine the resulting coffee taste or quality.

ACIDITY:

Coffee Acidity is the bright and dry taste that adds life to a coffee. Acidity is unmistakable in most Kenyan coffees and should be evident in any wet-processed coffees. Perceived acidity in coffee does not necessarily correlate to the pH of a coffee, but is believed to be the result of the acids present. The acidity of coffee is akin to the dry but bright sensation experienced on the back sides of your tongue while drinking a red wine.

ARABICA vs. ROBUSTA:

Two main species of coffee are cultivated today, these are the Coffee Arabica (Arabica) and the Coffee Canephora (Robusta). Arabica coffee is also called the gourmet coffee because of its excellent perfect taste and it accounts to almost 80% of the world's production. On the other hand Robusta, compared to Arabica, is higher in caffeine content and inferior in taste. Robusta has found its market in commercial brewing companies where it is commonly used.
