Yemenia | A New Mother Population

WHAT IS YEMENIA?

Yemenia is a new mother population within the species of "Coffea Arabica" that is found exclusively in Yemen, and represents an ocean of unexplored genetics and future varieties that have the potential to reshape the world of arabica for centuries to come.

THE QUALITY OF YEMENIA

To assess the cup quality of Yemen, Qima Coffee, in collaboration with the Alliance for Coffee Excellence, put together an independent jury panel of 35 cuppers from 24 leading global coffee companies across 14 countries. The cup quality was found to be exceptional and the coffees were ranked as amongst the highest in the world! This particular lot comes in right at 91 points!

THE VILLAGE OF BAIT ALAL

The farmers in Bait Alal consider coffee as a symbol of pride. They believe that the coffee tree originated on their land. Some farmers have ownership documents dating back from a few hundred years. The high altitude and low humidity contribute to producing some of the highest cupping coffees in the world.

BEST BREW METHOD?

Honestly, we hope anyone and everyone can enjoy this beautiful coffee. So don't let your brewing limitations stop you! We can even pre-grind it with our powerful EK-43. But over the last week, we have found some stellar results in both Kalita pour over, aeropress, and a basic Bonavita home drip machine.

RATIO & GRIND

In our experiments, we found a slightly wider ratio of 17:1 (water to coffee) came out a bit better. We also enjoy the body and flavor notes a bit more when we ground a bit coarser than we normally would for a classic washed coffee. We were extracting with a TDS of 1.28-1.32 when using this method. This was also in addition to using Third Wave Water, which comes with your purchase!

FLAVOR NOTES

Where to begin?? One thing we LOVE about this coffee is the BODY. It contains, and even maintains, as it cools, an excellent body. Some of the many notes we found were Fig, Tamarind and Raspberry.

SUPPORT YEMEN.

Drink amazing coffee & economically empower Yemeni farmers in the midst of the "world's worst humanitarian crisis"... how could it get better than that?
