Great coffee does not always grow where life is easy. Sometimes, it grows where almost nothing should.
High in the mountains of Yemen, coffee trees cling to ancient terraces cut into steep slopes and sheer cliffs. Water is scarce. The air is thinner. The terrain is unforgiving. Growth is slow. Yet those constraints are part of what gives the coffee its remarkable identity.
The demanding environment encourages the cherries to mature gradually, helping shape the density, complexity and distinctive character for which Yemeni coffee is known.
