Mocha Coffee Refers to Five Types of Mocha

2. Coffee brewed with a Moka pot

3. Italian latte coffee with chocolate added

4. The origin of coffee - Mocha coffee beans from Ethiopia's Harar region

5. The most ancient coffee homeland - Yemen coffee beans

Today, I'm writing about what I know about Yemen Mocha coffee beans...

The Historical Journey of Coffee

Today's coffee development began around the 17th century (1600s) when it spread from the Islamic world's Yemen Mocha Port to Europe, launching four hundred years of coffee development. Therefore, the early Yemen coffee beans exported from Yemen were given the term "Mocha coffee." However, Yemen coffee beans were introduced to Yemen from Ethiopia across the Red Sea, so coffee from Ethiopia's Harar region was also given the name "Mocha coffee." But in terms of coffee flavor richness, Yemen surpassed others, making Yemen Mocha coffee synonymous with the coffee homeland. Yemen's most famous coffee producing region is undoubtedly Matari, so drinking authentic Yemen Mocha Matari coffee allows you to pursue the ancient flavors of the coffee homeland...

The African Coffee Belt

While the world's coffee belt lies within 25-20 degrees north and south latitude within the equatorial zone, today let's look at the coffee homeland with rich characteristics - East Africa's coffee belt.

From the coffee-producing country Ethiopia to the Islamic world of Yemen, then through three hundred years of coffee's east-west journey: eastward to India, Java, Sumatra; westward through Dutch and French colonial development to Caribbean Central American countries, South America's Brazil, Colombia, etc., creating today's coffee world.

However, in the early 20th century, British colonies brought coffee beans to Kenya through French (or British) missionaries for breeding cultivation, thus connecting 20th-century coffee into a series in East Africa.

East African Coffee Belt from North to South

Yemen, Ethiopia, Kenya, Uganda, Rwanda, Burundi, Tanzania, Malawi...

Therefore, Yemen coffee beans have always been a window between ancient coffee and European coffee. However, due to terrain, climate, and various factors including warfare, Yemen has maintained traditional coffee bean cultivation. These Yemen coffee beans are grown on steep slopes with insufficient water sources, so-called marginal cultivation.

What's even more surprising is that Yemen coffee beans are fully natural process. Every household's rooftops, roadside paths, and streets serve as drying grounds for coffee beans. In ancient West Asian architecture, colorful coffee beans rich with Islamic world flavors are dried. Being able to enjoy such exceptional coffee beans is truly rare...

Perhaps in a country plagued by continuous warfare, when you drink this cup of Yemen Mocha coffee, it feels even more precious and cherished~~~

B1. Yemen Coffee Bean Matari Mocha Coffee

This coffee, needless to say, emphasizes Mocha Coffee. Mocha represents coffee, the disappeared export port, coffee bean producing regions (Yemen, Ethiopia's Harar), coffee brewing equipment... So this time I found this traditional Yemen Mocha coffee from the renowned Matari region. Because coffee is grown on marginal slopes with traditional home rooftops and alleyway concrete ground as natural drying areas, and Yemen coffee beans can be identified by whether they have some slight cracking; this is because dehulling is still done using the most traditional stone mortar + pestle with blindfolded camel power. All of this can be found in Google searches showing amazing Yemen Mocha coffee beans.

Flavor Description

Yemen coffee beans belong to the deep-roasted Mocha flavor profile: chocolate, subtle floral notes, sweet wine-like fermentation; all coffee elements can be enjoyed in this Matari Mocha coffee.
