RARE - Yemen Al Sharqui Haraz
RARE - Yemen Al Sharqui Haraz
So, check it out - I was finally able to buy some coffee from Yemen. If you have been following world events over the last few years, you would notice that Yemen has been the hotbed for conflict. Sadly, Yemen has been embroiled in conflict for quite some time now, but the fact remains that Yemen coffee is some seriously good stuff.
The farm that produces this coffee is situated between Sanaa (the capital of Yemen) and Hudaydah (a port city on the west coast of Yemen) and is close to the Sharqui district. The coffee is grown on terraced farming plots and the terrain is treacherous to say the least.
The coffee has a rustic sweetness, earthiness, fruit tones, bittersweet cocoa notes and a lot of body. If you are an adventurous coffee drinker and you want to substantially step up your coffee game this is an awesome coffee to try if you have not had Yemen coffee.
