The mention of Yemeni coffee immediately reminds people of the magical sun-dried beans that taste thick and full, with layers of fantastic wild aromas like fermented tea, as mysterious and elusive as the country in Yemen.

Yemen is located in Ethiopia, across the Red Sea from East Africa, and is the highest quality producer of natural suntan coffee. The coffee produced in Yemen is called mocha beans. In fact, Mocha is an export port of coffee. In the early days, sun beans including nearby East Africa were exported from the port of Mocha to all parts of the world, so the sun beans produced in Ethiopia, including Yemen and East Africa, are collectively referred to as moka beans.

The natural sun treatment in Yemen is to manually harvest fully mature coffee beans and directly place the newly harvested coffee beans in a special coffee drying yard or in their own compacted soil front yard to receive the sun. During the sun drying period with Taiwan, rice is usually turned over with a wooden rake to keep each bean evenly dried. After about 20 days of coffee drying, remove the outer pulp and peel from the coffee beans. Yemeni coffee has a rich, complex, mellow, strong fermentation flavor and low acidity, coupled with the uncertainty of Yemeni coffee (when it rains in the season). It is not too much to call it the most special coffee in the world.

Yemeni coffee grows in steep terrain with little rainfall, poor land and insufficient sunshine. Such unique and difficult conditions that are not conducive to coffee growth have given birth to the Yemeni mocha, which can not be replaced by the coffee world. The main producing area of Yemeni coffee is Sanani, Matari and Ismaili.

This batch of coffee is from Matari, which varies in size and color and looks like small peas and empty shell bad beans (pictured in Boulogg), raw beans have a fermented wine aroma, unlike Ethiopian red cherry coffee with eye-catching strawberry sandwich biscuit aroma, but low-key, calm and full flavor of fermented wine is unmatched by sun beans in other countries.

There are many empty shell beans in the Yemeni mocha raw beans with different sizes and colors, which is the characteristic of the Yemeni mocha and the reason for its uncertain fragrance.

Shallow baking City (fragrance): when the coffee beans have not been ground, there is an aroma of peanuts after grinding with the aroma of fairy Hawthorn plum fruit wine, there is a hint of fermentation during the cooking process, the taste is changeable and complex, a little bit of gluten acid appears at the end of the mouth, the aftertaste is long, Shengjin is sweet and round with the feeling of Middle East milk tea for a long time, and there is sweet malt at the bottom of the cup. The light-baked Yemeni mocha is still constantly changing. It is suggested that after baking for 14 days, the fermented flavor of complex game is the best.

Re-baking (general C): it is very obvious that the Yemeni sun beans are like a soft wine, the beans contain the sweetness of cocoa chocolate, the whole style changes to gentle and introverted, but there will be an unexpected aroma at any time. The mellow aftertaste of mocha (fermentation) is symmetrically and continuously produced in the mouth.
