In the 16th century, Yemeni coffee smelled the world. In 2017, Mokhtar Alkhanshali, the founder of the port of Mocha, once again made Yemeni coffee one of the top coffee in the world. Coffee is a cultural symbol that can not be ignored in this country, and Mocha seems to be synonymous with Yemeni coffee.
The source of the name of Mocha:
Famous for its harbor
Port / World
In fact, Yemeni coffee is named Moqado from the port called Mocha in Yemen, because Yemen is the first country to commercialize coffee cultivation, and Yemeni coffee is exported from the port of Mocha (port of Al-Mokha) to the world, so people gradually call the coffee from all over Yemen "Mocha", but this general name is not the real variety name of Yemeni coffee.
For a long time, Yemeni coffee was actually named after the producing area, such as the occasional Mattari from the Bani Mattar region of Yemen and Ismaeli from the Haraaz region, but today many other place names have been gradually forgotten.

Udaini Udaini:
Main varieties of Yemeni coffee
Antiquity / spread
It is precisely because of this general name or place name, masking the variety of coffee behind. In 1993, scholar Ali made a report on the research and classification of Yemeni coffee. In the report, he collected and sorted out the coffee varieties in Yemen. at present, there are four main coffee varieties in Yemen, namely, Udaini (Udini), Dawairi, Tufahi and Burra'i (the specific characteristics are shown in the table below).

Even in later studies, some scholars have suggested that there is even a fifth or sixth coffee variety in Yemen. But in many subsequent studies, scholars basically identified Udaini as the most common and oldest variety in Yemen. Thus it can be seen that the coffee seeds that spread from Yemen to all parts of the world were most likely to be Udaini.

As shown above, the location above is near the Yemeni town of IBB, 172km from the port of Mocha, the hometown of Motta, the founder of the Mocha project.
According to the above data, it can be inferred that the reason why the vast majority of local farmers choose to plant Udaini (Udaini) is closely related to the concentration of their harvest period, and the harvest every other year or the whole year is relatively unfavorable to commercial operation.

Origin / essence
Yemeni coffee varieties are mainly Udaini, so which category of coffee do these four Yemeni varieties belong to? In Arabica gene research, scholars successfully found Yemeni coffee (Anthony, F., Combes, M., Astorga, C. et al) by comparing the genes of four Yemeni varieties with those of various native species from Africa. Theor Appl Genet, 2002) belongs to the category, in fact, the main varieties of coffee in Yemen are from the ancient tin card varieties.
