Not every terroir suits every plant strain. Prior to 2012, there had never been any comprehensive attempt at selecting the best-quality coffee seed and making it available around the world. The World Coffee Research (WCR) organization has attempted to correct this with their Multi-Location Variety Trials (MLVT) that are now operating in 24 countries. WCR collected 31 top-performing varieties with highly rated sensory profiles and resistance to diseases and pests.
