Although Ethiopia was the first country in the world to discover coffee, Yemen was the first country in the world to produce coffee as a crop on a large scale. In the 17th century, the first batch of Yemeni coffee was exported to Europe through the ancient port of Mocha, which is the origin of the name mocha coffee. Ethiopia, across the sea from Yemen, also sells coffee through the port of Mocha, so Ethiopian sun-treated coffee is often referred to as mocha (such as Harald ETHIOPIA HARRAR, Ethiopia). The Yemeni mocha, the originator of the coffee trade of the World Office, played an important role in promoting delicious coffee all over the world. It was called "Arabica coffee (Arabia)" in the 17th century, which is the origin of the name "Arabica original".

The Yemeni mocha coffee has distinct taste characteristics, special taste and varied levels. It has a strong sour taste, a pleasant fruit acidity, and an obvious chocolate taste. The stronger the coffee is, the easier it is to taste the chocolate.
