A coffee bean is basically a seed from the coffee plant, whose primary component is a protein-rich and water-soluble tissue that contains anywhere from 0.8% to 2.5% caffeine. The stimulation from the psychoactive properties of caffeine is a major factor in the cultivation of the coffee plant, although some beans are decaffeinated prior to the roasting process. The classification of gourmet coffee beans takes caffeine content into account, along with the smell and taste of the liquid coffee produced from such beans.
Gourmet coffee beans are considered premium based on many attributes such as their size, density, colour, texture, and richness. Despite the brownish colour, coffee is sometimes referred to as green coffee.
