Yemen Green Coffee

Yemeni coffee stands out for its unparalleled heritage and exquisite flavor profile. Grown in the high-altitude, mountainous regions of Yemen, these arabica beans develop a unique sweetness that’s cherished by coffee enthusiasts worldwide. However, the dry climate and challenging terrain make cultivation a labor-intensive process. Combined with traditional, low-tech processing methods, Yemeni coffee production is slower and yields are smaller compared to other origins.
This meticulous approach and limited availability contribute to its rarity and higher cost, making Yemeni coffee a true treasure for specialty coffee lovers. Its storied history, artisanal production, and distinctive taste ensure Yemeni coffee remains a special and valued origin for brewing.

Yemeni coffee is celebrated for its complex and distinctive flavour profile. Often characterised by earthy undertones, it also reveals hints of dried fruit, cinnamon, cardamom, or tobacco, with a lingering chocolate finish that delights the palate. Its medium body, bright acidity, and well-balanced nature make it a favorite among specialty coffee enthusiasts.

Grown at high altitudes, Yemeni coffee benefits from the slower maturation of the coffee cherries, which helps preserve their natural sweetness. These unique characteristics, combined with the artisanal cultivation practices of Yemen, result in a truly unique coffee profile.
