Ancient Coffee Beans | Mocha Coffee Beans

Mocha gets its name from the famous Port of Mocha. In the fifteenth century, transportation in East Africa was very underdeveloped, yet this region produced the world's most precious coffee beans. These coffee beans would all gather at the Port of Mocha in Yemen and be shipped to Europe.

Yemen Mocha was the main export port near the Red Sea at that time. Today, the Port of Mocha has retreated inland due to silt accumulation, while emerging ports including Mombasa and Durban have replaced Mocha Port's status. However, at that time, any African coffee that was concentrated at Mocha Port and then exported outward was collectively called Mocha coffee. Therefore, the origins of Mocha coffee from the Port of Mocha period have been preserved, and coffee beans from these origins are still called Mocha coffee beans. This is the origin of the term "Mocha coffee."

In fact, authentic "Mocha coffee" is only produced in the Republic of Yemen on the southwestern Arabian Peninsula, growing on steep mountain slopes at altitudes of three to eight thousand feet, and is also the world's most ancient coffee. Yemen coffee possesses the world's most unique, rich, and fascinating complex aromas: red wine fragrance, wild flavor, dried fruit notes, blueberry, grape, cinnamon, tobacco, sweet spices, woody notes, and even chocolate notes. You can see all kinds of adjectives used to describe Yemen Mocha. Yemen Mocha achieves different schools based on different growing regions, just like the chocolate notes and acidity of MATTARI Mocha, and the ruggedness and fragrance of SANANI Mocha.

Traditionally, it is believed that Yemen's best coffee beans come from Mattari, followed by Sharki, and then Sanani. These coffee beans have low caffeine content. Mocha coffee beans are similar in appearance to Ethiopian Harrar coffee beans - they are small-grained, highly acidic, and mixed with a strange and indescribable spicy flavor. With careful tasting, you can also discern a hint of chocolate.

Dark-roasted Yemen coffee often reveals chocolate-like bittersweet charm, so the attempt to add chocolate to coffee was a natural development process. This influenced today's flavored coffee with chocolate sauce, which is also labeled with the term "Mocha."

Yemen Mocha has complex and ever-changing flavors. For coffee roasters, how to roast Yemen Mocha to bring out its best flavor is a great challenge! Light to medium roasting reveal fruity sweet aromas, gentle, warm sun-dried fermentation notes; dark roasting reveal rich red wine fragrance and bittersweet chocolate aftertaste.
