Mocha coffee (CafeMocha) is one of the oldest coffee, its history can be traced back to the origin of coffee. It is a mixture of Italian espresso, chocolate sauce, whipped cream and milk. Mocha gets its name from the famous port of Mocha. In the 15th century, the outward transportation industry of the whole coffee country in Central and East Africa did not flourish. Yemeni Mocha was a major commercial port near the Red Sea at that time. At that time, coffee was mainly concentrated in the port of Mocha and then exported to Africa, which was collectively called mocha coffee. Although the emerging port replaced the status of the port of Mocha, the origin of mocha coffee remained during the period of the port of Mocha, and the coffee beans produced in these areas are still known as mocha coffee beans.

Mocha coffee (also known as mocha or mocha, also translated as Arabian premium coffee, English cafe Mocha, meaning chocolate coffee) is a variant of Italian latte (Cafe Latt é). Like the classic Italian latte, it is usually made of 1/3 Caff è Espresso and 2/3 foam, but it is also mixed with a small amount of chocolate. Chocolate is usually added in the form of chocolate syrup, but some coffee selling systems are replaced by instant chocolate powder. Sometimes, whipped cream, cocoa powder, and cotton candy are added to add to the aroma of coffee and as a decoration. Unlike the Italian Cappuccino, there is no milk foam on the mocha. Instead, mocha coffee is usually topped with cream and cinnamon or cocoa powder. It is also possible to add sunflower honey powder to the surface as a decoration and add flavor. One variant of mocha is White Cafe Mocha, which uses white chocolate instead of milk and dark chocolate. In addition to white mocha, there are some variants that are mixed with two kinds of chocolate syrup, sometimes called "Zebras" and sometimes comically called "tuxedo mocha" (Tuxedo Mocha).

In some parts of Europe and the Middle East, Moccaccino is used to describe Italian lattes with cocoa or chocolate. In the United States, mocaccio refers to an Italian cappuccino with chocolate.

With the birth of Italian fancy coffee, people try to add chocolate to ordinary coffee instead of mocha, which is now often available. Italian fancy mocha coffee, by mixing Italian espresso Espresso from 1 to 3, hot milk from 2 to 3, and then adding chocolate. The traditional Italian fancy mocha uses chocolate syrup as the raw material, and because mocha is so popular that more home-made mochas are replaced by chocolate powder. Today's mocha coffee in addition to dark chocolate, milk chocolate can also be used as one of the ingredients. Unlike cappuccino's thick milk foam, mocha has no milk foam at the top and is replaced by whipped cream with cocoa powder and cinnamon. Candied fruit is also used as an ornament for mocha coffee on top.

Therefore, the so-called mocha coffee is actually the general name of mocha bean coffee and fancy mocha coffee. Tasters must pay attention to this when tasting mocha coffee, lest the coffee ordered is not the mocha coffee in mind.

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. Therefore, in order to better understand the unique taste of Yemeni mocha coffee, people now add hot chocolate to make fancy mocha coffee.

Mocha beans are smaller, rounder and light green than most coffee beans, which makes mocha beans look more like peas. Mocha coffee beans are similar in shape to Ethiopia's Harald coffee beans, with small particles, high acidity and a strange and indescribable spicy flavor.
