A Peaberry
A peaberry, referred to as caracolillo in Spanish, is a type of coffee bean. While the usual coffee fruit ("cherry") typically contains two seeds ("beans") that grow with flattened facing sides, there are instances where only one of the two seeds is fertilized, resulting in a single seed that develops without being flattened. This oval-shaped (or pea-shaped) bean is known as a peaberry. Approximately 5% of all harvested coffee beans exhibit this characteristic. Alternatively, normal coffee beans are less commonly referred to as flat berries.豆莓,西班牙语中称为caracolillo,是一种咖啡豆。通常,咖啡植物的果实(“樱桃”)包含两颗以扁平面对面的方式生长的种子(“豆”),但有时两颗种子中只有一颗受精,而单一的种子在发育过程中没有扁平。这种椭圆形(或豌豆形)的豆被称为豆莓。大约有5%的咖啡豆具有这种形态。相反,普通咖啡豆较少被称为扁平浆果。豆莓咖啡与坦桑尼亚咖啡特别相关,尽管科纳咖啡的豆莓品种也变得相当显著。
